Hello Connie,

The "Lombardia" was built by G. Ansaldo & Co, Sestri Ponente, Italy in 1901
for Navigazione Generale Italiana. She was a 4,815 gross ton ship, length
403ft x beam 46.6ft, one funnel, two masts, single screw and a speed of 14
knots. There was accommodation for 58-1st and 1,302-3rd class passengers.
Launched on 24th Apr.1901, she left Naples on her maiden voyage to New York
on 12th Jun.1901. On 16th Mar.1909 she was chartered to La Veloce and made
two round voyages for them, between Genoa, Naples and New York. She then
resumed sailings for NGI until commencing her last voyage between Genoa,
Naples, Palermo and New York on 21st Mar.1911. Sold to Russian owners the
same year and renamed "Jerousalim", she was eventually scrapped in
1928.[North Atlantic Seaway by N.R.P.Bonsor, vol.3,p.1115]

Hope this helps
Ted
