Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Passenger Lists - FamilySearch Historical Records/Known Issues

Known Issues
Question #1: I am looking for a record of an ancestor who sailed from Liverpool in early 1854 on the “City of Manchester”. Can you help me? Answer #2: The images for manifest of the “City of Manchester” are located at the waypoint 077 - 2 Jan to 23 Dec 1854 &gt; images 308-323. They have inadvertently been indexed with the manifest of the previous ship “Geo Harris”, and so the indexed records from the “City of Manchester” incorrectly show the “Geo Harris” as the ship on the record details pages.

Question #2: My ancestor’s record lists Westnewland as the ship sailed on. Is this correct? Answer #2: The images for the manifest of the “Westmoreland” were inadvertently indexed as “Westnewland”. The correct name of the ship is the “Westmoreland”
