Ship's
manifest
SS Freisland,
sailing from Liverpool, England on November
9, 1910
Arrived in Phildelphia November 21 - a
twelve day crossing.
Minnie is
listed as Mindel, 44 years old, able to read
and write and for "Race or People" she was
Hebrew. Below her name will be found Mische
(14 years), Sore (10), Leif (8) and Ruche
(11 months). To see page 30 of the manifest,
click here.
Sam is not
found on the manifest. But the facing page
(31) says:
"Husband S. Klausner 2528 East 30th Street.
Cleveland Oh" then follows a hard-to-read
note "Husband five months .... 2 weeks ago"
So Sam had gone on ahead!

Minnie is on line 7.

What city
were they from?
Very hard to
read what the ship's manifest said was the
city Minnie was from.
Then after
much searching, this page on
www.JewishGen.org told us!
