Hi Emma,  Did you get your information from a passenger manifest??  Manifests from this era usually have quite a bit of good detail.   Minimally,  do you know their dates of birth??

No problem!!   It happens!!!   It was the "New Rochester"  vs "New Rochelle" bit  that sparked my memory as there was discussion about it previously.

Cheers!   :)
