Hoping to find, at little or no cost, the passenger list for the SS Lord Gough arrival 19 or 20 May 1888 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Specifically hoping to verify that my great-grandparents Johan Olsen Bjorgum and Ellen Ashiem were on that ship, along with Johan's sister, Ingaborganna.

Thanks,
Meg

The microfilm for this passenger list can be rented for $3.60 for a one month period at a local Family History Center.
