During my search i found 2 young children listed twice as going from Liverpool to Philedelphia on 2 different ships in 1905 ;
other people of same surname on "The Westmorland"didn't seem to be on the "Noordland"

Apparently NOB after their names on 1st boat ...means they didn't get on that boat

The parents names were spelt differently ...

I found a 16 yearold of the same surname listed on the the Westmorland who may or may not be the same person who got on
The "Marion" as he's listed as SoreR. and Sore B .
I'm wondering if the family split into two groups when they couldn't get on the 1st boat .

A tip for people to limit wasting credits would be go for 2nd postings in case the 1st sailing is a NOB
