Ship Manifest

Record is correct, image is not — on Ellis Island Record, the ship is Kronprinzessin Cecilie but the manifest it is linked to in images is SS Rotterdam. May 7 1910 record.


I came upon the error when finding my grandmother Marya Roncsak who came in from Hungary. I did not recognize the names she was associated with on the indexing so when I went to the manifest I saw the image was SS Rotterdam, which is the wrong ships manifest. Thank you!

    Near as I can tell, someone made a typo in the metadata: the correct "affiliate film number" (the NARA roll number) is 1481, not 1480. This means that the entire shipload has been associated with the wrong images on FamilySearch.

    Marya Roncsak is on line 23 here: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C9T3-PQYF-J?i=111&wc=4XBX-3ZK%3A1600452392&cc=1368704

    I haven't a clue where the index got the "additional person" fields: I can find neither Mrs. Nemeth nor Mr. Garai anywhere on the page. Marya's actual departure contact is her father Roncsak Janos in Krusetnicza, Árva (county), and her destination contact is a cousin Ol?? Anna in Grenwich ??, New York. (The latter is on the following image.)
