Hello there, I am searching for a passenger list, and I am hoping someone might be able to help me.
My great great grandfather, James Carolan sailed to New York USA in I believe 1881.
The sailing vessel was The City of Chester and the date of arrival into New York was June 6, 1881.
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
Angela

I have sent you an e-mail explaining how you can obtain access to the orginal ship manifest.
