I recently learned that my great grand parents arrived in May, 1882 in NY, USA on the steamship Egyptian Monarch. I have found descriptive information about this ship but no photos. Could someone please direct me to a source where I might possibly find pictures of Monarch Line ships. Thanks, OleO

The University of Baltimore Steamship Historical Society is a good source:

They used to have an online index to search their ship photograph collection but I could not find it. You have to pay $5.50 for a search of their records. I have gotten pictures from them and they are very good quality.
