The SS Mauretania arrived in New York from two different ports per Ancestry.com. Cherbourg, France, or Southampton, England.

A Dragica Zaborac is listed, age 19. Father: Josip Zaborec, from Mrkopalj.
New York Passenger Lists, 1820-1957
Name: Dragica Zaborac
Arrival Date: 2 Apr 1921
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1902
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Port of Departure: Cherbourg
Ethnicity/Race­/Nationality: Croatian
Ship Name: Mauretania
Port of Arrival: New York, New York
Nativity: Croatia

She is the only one that came up with a hit for the names you listed. I didn't use all the different search capabilities.

Ethelg,

Thanks I used Ancestry.com which is a subscription service. You should be able to use this Ellis Island Web site, for free.
http://www.stevemorse.org/ellis/boat.html

After you enter the date and ships name, the next page will let you click on the Mauretania, and then the manifest page will appear.

On the left side bottom will appear a bunch of boxes with numbers. Click on the FRAMES +1 box to advance to the next page.

You may have to register to get full access.

Enjoy your search.

You should be able to order a microfilm copy of passenger arrivals in April of 1921 through your nearest LDS Family History Center. Most LDS centers also have equipment which would allow you to make a copy of the passenger list from that film.
It would also be possible to obtain a microfilm of those passenger arrivals through the US National Archives.

ethelg,

The name of the ship has to be entered correctly, and if you enter the date in the three boxes, it should bring a page for you to click on the ship's name, Mauretania, which will bring up the first manifest page. The tape is identified as Series T715, Roll 2945. In the box for Frame, enter 324. Click on Display, and Dragica will be at the top of the page. To continue searching, click on the plus or minus frame boxes.

To send e-mails to members of the forum, just click on their name on the left side, which will bring up a pop up menu to allow you to contact that person. Members e-mail addresses are hidden for privacy.

Thank you Lester:
I've finally found the pages, thanks to you... I'm just curious though, how did you come up with the
number 324 to enter in Frame?

Do you know if I can get copies of some of the pages I've read?

Ancestry.com gave me a image page number, which was different then the Ellis island frame number, so it was near the end of the manifest, and searched for Croations to show up on the listing.

After you enter the ship's name and arrival date, the next page that pops up, also has the word "Text". Click on that, and you have a new page which will give you lots of options. Find the page you want, and it will let you print it out.

Les

PS: I think we did it the hard way. This site does have people search, and ship search. Sorry.
