Maybe something delayed them and they couldn't get to the port on time. Crossed off names basically means they did not get off that ship at that port, and there are several reasons that could happen. In my example, it's because they got off the same ship at a different port - but it could also be because they died on board, or because they never got on that ship to begin with. It sounds like the latter is the case for your relatives.History Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07984934236728821742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704837170217213689.post-14670609797865491452021-02-08T04:57:03.613-07:002021-02-08T04:57:03.613-07:00I have a distant relative and her daughter who'...I have a distant relative and her daughter who's name was crossed out on the arrival manifest of the ship Cleveland and then shows up on the arrival manifest of the ship Americka one day later. I have crossed checked all information and I know that both manifests show my relatives and I have not mistaken them for someone else. How could they be on two different ships one day apart? I also found the departure manifest of the American from Hamburg and they are both on that. Any ideas?

My maternal grandmother and her son were crossed off a ship Vedic manifest. I never knew why as I know they arrived her in Pennsylvania in 1921. Well as it goes, they left Germany and went to Liverpool, England. I assumed they boarded another ship to New York but could never find that. As it turns out now, they must have stayed on the ship in Liverpool as others boarded. <br /><br />Now I have to figure out why the dates of her birth and the age on the manifest don't hook up. I am thinking there is more to this story than we have been told! The mystery thickens. <br /><br /> Thank you again from another Pennsylvanian.

You'd probably have to research those particular people more.History Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07984934236728821742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704837170217213689.post-8976271708442784422020-09-26T07:31:00.832-06:002020-09-26T07:31:00.832-06:00Hi Can you let me know why a manifest page that I...Hi Can you let me know why a manifest page that I am looking at has 29 names crossed of with an annotation at the bottom saying "29 N.R."?

The term STET indicates that it should remain as it stood originally. A line of dots may be written under the words crossed out meaning that no attention should be paid to the crossing out.Rozbudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09467484180377290841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704837170217213689.post-23327869230934626462018-10-13T13:09:25.129-06:002018-10-13T13:09:25.129-06:00found you on a google search to learn more about w...found you on a google search to learn more about why an ancestor was crossed off. great article; very clear.
