Philadelphia Passenger List lookup request
« on: Tuesday 21 July 09 07:19 UTC (UK) »

Hello

I am requesting a Philadelphia Passenger List lookup for Annie Pardy born 1875 in Aston, Birmingham, England.  Any information on likely travelling companions e.g. family members would be similarly welcome.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

On the ship Ohio from Liverpool to Philadelphia arriving 13 Sep. 1891:
Pardy, Annie, age 16, female, occupation is hard to read - looks like it starts with "wai" - maybe waitress?, citizen of England, native country - England, intended destination - Md. (Maryland), pieces of baggage - 2

There's no one else named Pardy on that page.  The list is in alphabetical order and doesn't give much in the way of details, so if she traveled with anyone with a different surname, it would be hard to tell.

Looking at the images, there are several passengers from Russia and Poland who state "intended destination: MD" (Maryland).  Besides those passengers, the following passengers were born in England, and have intended destination Maryland.
Jackson, Catherine?, age 33, House Keeper
Jackson, Annie, cannot read age - 20?, Shop Asst.?
Jackson, Jno?, 64?, Nil? (occupation)

Dulton (Duffon?), James, 60, Farmer, last lived in US, native country Ireland.

At times, the writing is faint and difficult to read.  There are quite a few passengers; I may have missed seeing all notations for Maryland.

Shelly:  is there a chance that Annie's occupation could be Warehouse Girl?  (It looks like it could be Wareh___ G _ _ _)

Thanks Shelly for such a prompt reply - that looks like the correct one - thanks Lisa too - I appreciate that the entries can be difficult to read so your help is doubly welcome.

Now to try and find out a bit more ...

All the best
