Reel # Ship Name Departure Arrival
T-482 POMERANIAN Glasgow, Scotland 1904-05-21 Quebec, Que. 1904-06-01
& Montreal, Que.
Shipping Line: (A) Allan Line Steamship Co., Glasgow

The passenger manifest is on Microfilm at the National Archives of Canada,
in Ottawa (NAC). The Ships are placed on the reel, in order of arrival.
You can borrow this reel on an Inter Library Loan (ILL). You can find the
details for this procedure at this URL
http://www.archives.ca/www/Genealogy.html
You are able to ILL from Ottawa, to libraries in the US, and outside North
America. The LDS do not have copies of the Canadian passenger lists, post
1900 Quebec, and post 1899 Halifax. These microfilms contain arrivals from
ALL ports.

Actually, even without an exact date, you should be able to find the record
for Constance too, because if she did arrive approx. 1920, she will be
found on the Form 30A reels! It will be difficult to find who she was
travelling with, unless you have an idea of the surname.

T-15153 - PATTERSON, M. to PEARCE, Stuart
This is an entirely different format of passenger manifest, which was
adopted by the Canadian Government for a few years, 1919 to 1924,
Form 30A, details at this URL ...

Good luck,
