Canadian Passenger Lookup Request: Lizzie and Maggie Wright *Completed*

[lululisa]

Hello,

I'm looking for help with finding my great grandmother and her sister Maggie on a Canadian passenger list. According to the 1916 MB census record, Lizzie and Maggie Wright (or MacDougall) immigrated to Canada in either 1907 or 1913. Here is the link to the census record:

(They are Lizzie Vipond and Maggie Morgan #27 and #32, respectively)

I would greatly appreciate it if someone would look them up for me. More information: they came from Scotland, more than likely Glasgow. They were probably in their late teens as well. They came to work as domestic servants. Although they give differing immigration dates, I know for a fact that they came here together.

Thanks in advance!!

Travelling on the same ticket number 27153 on the Numidian arriving 03 June 1913 from Glasgow to Halifax are
Lizzie Wright, 22, single, going to Winnipeg, domestic service, Presbyterian, British Bonus allowed
Margaret Wright, 19, same information as above.

This gets Lizzie to Manitoba in time for her marriage - a good possibility for you.

If you are looking up the ships manifest from collections canada the Wright girls are on the bottom of the page that has Thomas Alexander at the top.  It is page #4 - although some passenger records have more than one page four in their listings - I assume because of different classes of tickets.
