[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Migration through England

[rhonda simpson]

I think we all forget about the great "free" Canadian resource  for 
passenger lists that may take a bit more time to find, but with the info you 
have, you can enter the ship name, departure date and come up with the 
passenger list on this site
http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/passenger/001045-100.01-e.php

Granted, you'll have to page through many pages, but you have a head start 
with the information you have. A bit of a hint from experience, a lot of 
ships listed their passengers in a very predictable manner, British 
Subjects, Scandinavians, Europeans, Eastern Europeans/Russian/Slavs and 
Hebrew.   Not all, but many.  I found some of my needed passenger data by 
starting at the back and working forward.

Oft times too, there will be separate pages for those going to the USA, 
sometimes at the end, that I found mostly hit and miss.
Good luck
Rhonda
