Summary of the Irish Passenger Lists (1883-1921)
The collection of Irish port passenger lists 1883-1921 provides a fascinating window into Irish emigration patterns and maritime travel from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. These documents capture details about passengers traveling from Irish ports—primarily Queenstown (Cobh) and Moville—to destinations such as New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Liverpool. The records include voyages on famous ocean liners from major shipping companies such as Cunard Line, White Star Line, Anchor Steamship Line, American Line, Red Star Line, and Hamburg-Amerika Linie.
The records cover a variety of passenger classes, from First-Class (Saloon) travelers—often wealthy individuals and notable figures—to Second-Class and Cabin passengers, which included middle-class emigrants and professionals. Third-Class (Steerage) passengers are not prominently featured in this collection, but these were the most significant group in terms of numbers, consisting of Irish emigrants seeking a new life in North America.
Noteworthy Passenger Lists and Their Significance
While all the passenger lists hold historical value, certain voyages stand out due to their ships, routes, or timing in relation to major historical events.
1. RMS Titanic (10 April 1912) – The Most Famous Voyage
- Steamship Line: White Star Line
- Class of Passengers: First Class (Saloon)
- Route: Southampton to New York via Cherbourg and Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain E. J. Smith
- Why It's Interesting: The RMS Titanic, the most famous ocean liner in history, made its final stop in Queenstown (Cobh), Ireland, before heading into the Atlantic, where it tragically sank on April 15, 1912. This passenger list is significant as it includes individuals who perished in the disaster and highlights the social divisions aboard the ill-fated vessel.
2. RMS Lusitania (March 20 & August 17, 1912) – The Tragic Predecessor
- Steamship Line: Cunard Line
- Class of Passengers: Saloon
- Route: Liverpool to New York via Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain W. T. Turner (March); Captain J. T. W. Charles (August)
- Why It's Interesting: Just three years after these voyages, the Lusitania was torpedoed by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland on May 7, 1915. The ship’s sinking played a key role in shifting public opinion in favor of the United States entering World War I.
3. RMS Mauretania (14 June 1911 & 6 October 1909) – The Speed Champion
- Steamship Line: Cunard Line
- Class of Passengers: Saloon
- Route: New York to Liverpool via Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain John Pritchard (1909); Captain W. T. Turner (1911)
- Why It's Interesting: The Mauretania was one of the fastest and most luxurious liners of its time, holding the Blue Riband for the fastest transatlantic crossing for 20 years. Its sister ship, Lusitania, was tragically sunk, but Mauretania continued serving throughout World War I.
4. RMS Campania (29 June & 31 August 1895) – The Jewel of the Cunard Line
- Steamship Line: Cunard Line
- Class of Passengers: Saloon
- Route: New York to Liverpool via Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain W. H. P. Hains
- Why It's Interesting: RMS Campania was one of the most elegant ships of the Cunard fleet in the 1890s. Its luxurious interiors made it a favorite among affluent passengers, and it held the Blue Riband for speed before Mauretania.
5. SS Friesland (7 May 1892) – A Rare Antwerp to New York Route
- Steamship Line: Red Star Line
- Class of Passengers: Cabin
- Route: Antwerp to New York via Dover
- Commander: Captain Wm. G. Randle
- Why It's Interesting: Unlike most ships that departed from British or Irish ports, this ship’s Antwerp origin highlights a different emigrant pathway for Irish and other European travelers heading to the U.S.
6. RMS Oceanic (6 November 1907 & 8 December 1909) – The White Star's First "Queen"
- Steamship Line: White Star Line
- Class of Passengers: First Class
- Route: Southampton to New York via Cherbourg and Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain H. J. Haddock
- Why It's Interesting: The RMS Oceanic was once the largest ship in the world and represented the pinnacle of luxury. Her passenger lists likely contained notable figures of the Edwardian era.
7. SS Meteor (4 May 1907) – A Unique Cruise
- Steamship Line: Hamburg Amerika Linie (HAPAG)
- Class of Passengers: Cruise (Class not Stated)
- Route: Genoa to Hamburg via Villafranca, Ajaccio, Algiers, Gibraltar, Tangier, Lisbon, and Dover
- Commander: Captain Schwamberger
- Why It's Interesting: Unlike the typical transatlantic voyages, this was a European cruise itinerary, indicating the luxury travel opportunities for the wealthy elite before the Great War.
8. RMS Baltic (10 September 1921) – The End of an Era
- Steamship Line: White Star Line
- Class of Passengers: First Class
- Route: Liverpool to New York via Queenstown (Cobh)
- Commander: Captain F. B. Howarth
- Why It's Interesting: The Baltic was one of the last great liners of the pre-World War I era still operating after the war. By 1921, passenger travel was changing with the rise of air travel and post-war economic shifts.
