  The American Ship Lines had 3 sailings a week from Liverpool to Philadelphia and in the year 1882 alone, 17,342 passengers arrived from Liverpool. The line had four ships that traveled "via" Liverpool and Queenstown to Philadelphia. They were called Kensington, Southwark, Haverford and Merion. The Merion is the ship that carried our Cafferty and Boland ancestors to America. All in all, the ship brought in around 20,000 immigrants each year between 1880 and 1910 from England/Ireland.

  Thanks to both of you for this information about the ship. We'll fill in the caption the next time we update the record.
