In earch of Kaiser Wilhelm II passenger manifests from Feb. 1913.

Question

I am looking for the passenger manifest of the liner Kaiser Wilhelm II for a specific voyage in February of 1913.  I have searched ISTG, and some other sources but have found nothing.  This is the ship and voyage my grandmother sailed from Bremen to New York aboard.  But manifests for that period seem quite difficult to discover.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Answer 1

Try the Steve Morse one step web page at https://stevemorse.org/

There are several links for Ellis Island, Castle Garden, and New York ship arrivals in General.

(Edit) FHL film 1400696 apparently has the manifest for the voyage you are interested in.

Thank you.  That is exactly what I have been looking for.  My family has been looking for verification for some time now.  We've narrowed it down to that ship and that voyage.  Just trying to find verification.

Answer 2

I looked at the Ellis Island Wizard and they show a KAISER WILCHELM II as well as several other variations for Wilhelm.  If you put in the spelling you used above you may have missed a number of the possible boats.  Also spelling was often not as we know it today for names.  So you might try entering different variations of that too.  Since you did not give us the name of your grandmother I could not check further.

Thanks, it isn't the spelling as a lack of actual records for the specific voyage,  February 1913.
