A "Dona" Safier aged 45 occ buyer travelled to  New York from Southampton  on 7.11.1949 address 317 Amhurst Rd N

The NY passenger list shows her going to 53 Aldine St., Newark, New Jersey.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-894K-CC26?view=index&action=view&cc=1923888

The 2nd page of the 1926 passenger list also shows her going to join an aunt in Newark. 

This may be Dora/Dona's petition for naturalization.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSNN-N97Q-7?view=index&action=view&cc=2649169

There is an entry in the New Jersey marriage index for Dona or Donna Safier who married a Benjamin Saville in May 1960. 

There is an entry in the Social Security death index for Donna Saville, born 24 Apr 1904, Social Security number issued in 1951, died Aug. 1984, and last resided in Irvington, NJ.

The NJ death index has Donna Saville who died 3 Aug 1984 in Irvington at age 80.

She also went back to the US on 25 Mar 1927 from Southampton to New York on the Leviathan. She is listed as a saleslady and last country of residence England.

That passenger list was her going from New York to Southampton.  It listed her country of intended future residence as England.

Sorry I had looked at a transcription, now seen the original and it is from New York to Southampton.

The address for this Benjamin matches the one on Dona's naturalization record that I posted above.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:WYZQ-KZN2

This mentions him arriving in New York in May 1960, which might match up with the marriage date.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QK8J-R4CZ

Possibility for Benjamin on the Social Security Death Index - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JPCK-66Y  New Jersey death index says he died 13 Jan. 1979 in Union Township and that his residence was Irvington.
