[TSL] Poland to Canada 1911 (was) (no subject)
Sue Swiggum <swig@ns.sympatico.ca> on 08/07/2010

Hi Natalie,

Your grandfather and lots of family arrived at Saint John, New Brunswick on 
21 March 1911.  They had $1,000 and were headed to Saskatchewan by the CPR 
railway ... three "Special" trains were laid on to carry the passengers on 
the inward journey.

Reel Number     Ship Name       Shipping Line
Special Group(s)
Departure Information   Arrival Information     Remarks
T-4823  MOUNT TEMPLE    (CPR) Canadian Pacific Railway Co.
(O): Austrian; Roumanian; Bukovinian; Hungarian; Russian; Bulgarian; Pole; 
German; Ruthenian; Italian
Antwerp, Belgium 1911-03-08     St. John, N.B. 1911-03-21       Captain 
James H. Moore; quarantine: some passengers to hospital

They sailed from Antwerp, so I suppose it is _possible_ that they first 
took a vessel from Poland to Antwerp which sounded like "Carlesburg," but I 
think it would have been more likely that they went by rail.

If you have an Ancestry subscription you can find them very quickly, but if 
not, you go here to the Library and Archives, Canada (LAC)
http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/passenger/index-e.html
On the search page just type in MOUNT TEMPLE and the arrival year 1911 and 
select the March 21st Saint John arrival.   You then select "View Image" 
and start clicking through ... there are 58 pages in the manifest.  On 
Ancestry they are on page 20, but they only show 54 pages [they often don't 
include the front page or the summaries] .. so it might be around page 21 
at the LAC.  You can make the image bigger by clicking on it, however you 
will have to first hit the back button on your browser to be able to 
navigate through the pages again.

Enjoy,

Sue
