A search on the following webpage may show the arrival date of the family.

A Microfilm reel number is given on which you can find the passenger lists. You might be able to have your local public library order it by Inter Library Loan.
The passengers Lists from 1925 to 1935 contain detailed information, such as place of birth, last place of residence, who they left behind, etc. etc.

Hello to all, I'm researching a journey taken by my German grandparents
and their six children who fled their family farm in Volynia, left all
their possessions and emigrated to Manitoba around 1930. On my aunt's
citizenship papers the name of the place given is Lacnoknok Volhynia
Russia. Two of the six children have passed on, and the memories my
aunts and uncles share are those of when they were small children. I've
tried researching but have not found any name that sounds similar. Of
course, the translation could be wrong...
My grandfather's name was Franz Abraham, he was a blacksmith who had
apprentices, his wife's name was Bertha. My dream is to go back one day
and find where they once lived.
Any information provided would be so appreciated.
thanks so much,
Cindy Barry
