Passenger Services to Halifax Nova Scotia
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to find out the identity of a vessel that took a U.K. emigrant to Halifax, Nova Scotia approximately six weeks after the Titanic was lost on Sunday 14th April 1912. The emigrant was Annie Jane Day; she was 19 years old and travelling alone. This indicates Annie Jane Day’s departure date as, approx. 26th May 1912.
I’m wondering if anyone reading this knows which shipping/passenger lines were operating from U.K. ports to Halifax at this time. Was the service to Halifax, from a particular port, by only one company? That would be helpful.
If this can be ascertained, then any guidance of how to progress this search for the ship and passenger will be most welcome.
I look forward to any suggestions.
Regards
Clem
