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 a letter that could not be read due to the handwriting of the original recorder or the condition of the original manifest. 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 Sasketchewan, 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. #384: this passenger has the same contract ticket number as # 385 - 389, a family traveling together. This could be a mistake by the person writing the manifest or he could be traveling with this family. #385 - 389: this family has the same contract ticket number, which is also the same number as # 384. #391: could be Jesselani #396 & 398: this is a family traveling together, they have the same contract ticket number. #398 & 399: this is a family traveling together, they have the same contract ticket number. #408: could be Hainie #412: could be Ostley #413: the first letter of the first name could possibly be H #414: the last letter of the last name could possibly be a h Ellerseth #415: the name could be Skagseth #421 & 422: I think this is Jensen but was pronounced Yunsen or Yensen, and 422 is Jens not Yens, although that is how it is clearly written on the manifest. #427: there could be a dot over the second a in the last name, it could also be a smudge. #430 & 431: this is a family traveling together, they have the same contract ticket number, Rom Cal is handwritten in the Births at Sea coloumn, it probably stands for Roman Catholic. Could be Kremis
