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 Sasketchewan, Que.is Quebec, NWT is North West
Territories, Nfld is New Foundland, PEI is Prince Edward Island, NS is Nova
Scotia.
