Hi,

Is there anyone who would be able to do a lookup for me in the Atlantic Ports Passenger Lists 1893-1959. I am looking for info on a Stephen Whorf Kendall. I have him on the 1901 census in the Uk so some time after this.

Many thanks

Thankyou Rebecca and Cassidy for the info and so quickly.
I wasn't aware he had a wife and children when he left the uk so thats something else to look into.

Thanks again Cassidy
The William Wharf who was travelling with them was infact Stephens step father. That would explain why i cant find a death for him. I have a death for his mother prior to his leaving the uk.
Now all I need to find is what happened to his brother.

Thanks Jim.

Trying to digest all this info and getting a little confused. If they left the Uk in march 1911 and they are on the Canadian 1911 census then what date was the 1911 Canadian census taken? as there ships destination was Portland in America.

Cassidy

Cassidy Report 26 Oct 2008 11:26

Portland was the ship's final destination.
If you look at Google map you'll see that Canada/Bristish Columbia was very near.So,They most probably crossed on Land or maybe another smaller vessel took them to their final destination.


The occupation is difficult to work out as the ink is smudged on page.
