Transcriber's notes: The SS Laurentic arrived in Quebec, Que. June, 11, 1909. This passenger list has 16 coloumns. The immigration officer has stamped a lot of information in the list, therefore the list is done in paragraph form for ease of transcribing the added information. Each page on the manifest starts with passenger number 1, passengers have been numbered consecutively by the transcriber. List of Races will be found on black sheet printed at the end of the first page. At the top of each page the following is printed: INSTRUCTIONS TO PURSER. - Each passenger should be given a card indicating the number of sheet and line on sheet his name is to be found on. Since Quebec is a province and Montreal is in Quebec, this could be Quebec city. This could also be true for passengers where the final destination is Quebec. The SS Laurentic belonged to the White Star Line and White Star Dominion Line. No births or deaths were reported during this voyage. Religious affiliations: C of E is probably Church of England, Presb. could be Presbyterian, Rom.Cat. is possibly Roman Catholic. The religious affiliation of each passengers is stamped in the "births" and "deaths" coloumns and has been added to each passenger by the transcriber. An * shows that there is a note in the transcriber's notes at the end of the list of names. A ^ shows that the following letter was superscripted. The name of the Canadian Province in brackets after the ultimate destination was written by the transcriber, all other names of provinces are on the manifest. C.P.R. stands for Canadian Pacific Railway, G.T.R. stands for Grand Trunk Railway (which was incorporated into the Canadian National Railway systems in about 1921). This is the mode of transportation to the final destination. Canadian Provinces: Ab (Alt)is Alberta, BC is British Columbia, Man is Manitoba, Ont is Ontario, Sask is Saskatchewan, Que.is Quebec, NWT is North West Territories, Nfld is New Foundland, PEI is Prince Edward Island, NS is Nova Scotia. Passenger Notes: general - the u and n are very similar on this manifest and could be interchangeable. Very often a capital W appears like an N. The names beginning with Mc are listed with the c written after but above the M. # 244 – 246: These passengers have the same contract ticket number since they are travelling together, this is shown by a bracket in front of their names. Also written in front to the names is the word released # 247 – 248: These passengers have the same contract ticket number since they are travelling together, this is shown by a bracket in front of their names. # 252: no occupation is written down, there is no explanation for the 2 year 6 months, it could possibly be the time he spent out of Canada. # 253: Austria has been crossed out and Galician stamped above it # 254: Finland has been crossed out and German is hand-written above it, above the contract ticket number is an X # 256 & 257: a bracket in front of the names shows that they are travelling together # 258, 261, 262: Port Arthur is called Thunder Bay now # 263 & 264: They have the same contract ticket number since they are travelling together, this is shown by a bracket in front of the names # 265 – 268: They have the same contract ticket number since they are travelling together, this is shown by a bracket in front of the names, 57.00 is in front of all the names # 269 – 271: They have the same contract ticket number since they are travelling together, this is shown by a bracket in front of the names, 135.00 is in front of all the names # 270: the Germ behind the Country of Birth could stand for Germany
