Morwenna, Black Diamond Steamship Co., Captain Luke Holmes
St. John's, Nfld. 1914-08-01, Sydney, N.S. 1914-08-03, Montreal, Que. 1914-08-[07]

I have transcribed this passenger list as an example of the Sydney, Nova Scotia records. Mostly the arrivals were of "ferry-type" ships, between Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, however, this ship, and another Black Diamond ship, City of Sydney, continued to Montreal during 1913-1914. There are no copies of these lists on the Quebec microfilm reels, but the Montreal destined passengers are found on the Sydney, N.S. microfilms. There is no room to include all 31 manifest fields on this webpage, but I will include all pertinent information in a "Remarks" field. I have also placed the last-name first, for easier searching.
M = married | S = single | W = widowed | ICR = Intercolonial Railway | Str = Steamer (those who stayed on board)
