Can someone please point me in the right direction to find the passenger list for the Oscar II arriving in New York 18 February 1903. I have exhausted all my avenues.

Many Thanks

Hi Kerrie. I looked on Ancestry.com and the Ellis Island records and the earliest record for that year and that ship is 13 Jul 1903. Are you sure you have the date and/or ship correct?

Looking at the various pages of information about the Oscar II in 1903 on this website - it is listed that the ship did attempt to make a voyage in Feb of 1903 but broke down. The passengers were transferred to another ship.

I have been searching all day for the passenger lists for this Ship "SS Grosser Kurfuerst" arriving in St Michael Balitmore in March 1903 with no luck. So I guess they have not been transcribed as yet. Apart from NARA that I don't have access to is there anywhere else I might be able to find them?

Regards

According to the links Hopkins gave you they arrived at the Port of New York.

Anyway, why don't you let us know the names of the people you are looking for and maybe someone on this site could help you find them.

Sorry Jo looks like I got the bull by the horns again. I saw St Michaels and did a google search to see where it was and it came up with Balitmore. The person I am searching for is Karl Adolf Pettersen Martinsen he could well have gone under both names and he was supposed to be going to Minnesota according to Digitialarkivet in Norway. He was borin in 1882 in Moss Østfold.
