Title: Looking for names of Ships for Kulhanek Family
Post by: briankaess on Tuesday 12 August 25 03:14 BST (UK)
Hello,
Looking for the name of the ship for Roland Kulhanek (1936-2016). it appears he traveled from Genoa, Italy to Venezuela in 1951 sometime, originating from Ludwigsburg, Germany, the zone of origin being Villach. They were displaced persons.
   Also looking for the ship's name for for Elsa Barmus (1938-2019) who arrived in Baltimore in March 13, 1956 from what appears to be Maracaibo, Venezuela. Here is a link to the manifest at FS, I just can't figure out the name of the ship:

Thanks, Brian

On 22 Nov 1951 brothers Willi and Roland seem to have left on the Vespucci from Genoa:

This is how I interpret the name of the ship:

Venez (Venezuela) / M/S Sucre (“Mariscal Sucre” – the names of various ships commemorating Marshal Antonio José de Sucre)

This ship might have been launched in 1944 ….
