Hi just love the name Urban! Just wondered who the Urban Parr was who  departed Liverpool for Portland USA on the 27th May 1913 on the Franconia, on same voyage were a Frances Geo Parr aged 17 and a Walter S Parr, maybe no connection at all but the combination of forename/surname left me puzzled!?

Hi again ok I agree a long shot it is him, I have located the other 2 as brothers in 1911, but as of yet cannot locate an Urban b c 1889 on 1911?

PS I have looked at original passenger list and although the last 5 letters appear to be URBAN their look to be further letters prior?

Hi keyboard,

I read it as 'Mr. Urban Parr'.

It is a pity that it doesn't give his age.
