  • Attachment #3 Ship Manifest for Olympic (Radovs) and Finland (Mandibergs)
    ATTACHMENT #3 SHIP MANIFEST FOR OLYMPIC (RADOVS) AND FINLAND (MANDIBERGS) Discussed in conversations of Bertha Blau, Jack Thompson and Alan Mandiberg. Radov Chronicles © Joel Levin SHIP MANIFEST FOR OLYMPIC (RADOVS & CAROLS) AND FINLAND (MANDIBERGS) The Radovs Radovs came to the United States in 1908, 1911 and 1922. It is unclear what passage was booked for the first two trips, with only limited family members making the initial voyages. In 1908, Joe Radov and Raful Carl, with his older children Morris and Minnie, came. In 1911, Joe Radov returned for his wife, Cirka (Sarah), and two children, Sam and Gus, as well as his sister, Ida, to help care for the children should one need to be left at Ellis Island for quarantine. In 1922, when most of the Radovs arrived, it was aboard the R.M.S. Olympic. The passage (described further in Attachment 17, A76‐79), which began in Russia and Bucharest, departed from Cherbourg, France on the coast of Normandy. Luba Radov gave birth on ship, mid‐Atlantic, to Anna. The vessel itself, the Olympic, was the sister ship to the Titanic on the White Star Line. The earlier trip in 1911 by the Mandibergs was made on the U.S.S. Finland, a ship that, at least after some re‐chartering, joined the White Star Line in 1909. Like the occasionally troubled Finland, the Olympic could be a dangerous carrier. It collided with the H.M.S. Hawke, but unlike the most famous ship of the White Star Line, the Titanic, it did not sink altogether. The Olympic in New York in 1911 on her maiden voyage.

    Belgian Laces Volume 14 #53 December 1992 Belgian Laces Vol14 #53 Dear Members, The end of the year is approaching rapidly in Belgium and in most of Europe, the children are anxiously looking forward to December 6, when St Nicolas will come with gifts for the good children and the “martinet” (whip) for the bad ones. There will also be plenty of speculoos and massepain oranges and apples. Just thinking of the expectations, the fears and joys make us long for the holiday atmosphere of “the old country”. Then come the family reunions of Christmas, the joys of being together and sharing the blessings of the holidays. The New Year too brings special traditions, where the chi1dren will read their specially prepared “New Years Letters”: one for the parents, one for the grandparents and one for their godparents, who each will give them a few francs or a special present The children have worked hard on these letters, wilting them using their most beautiful handwriting and vocabulary! New Year too is the time for resolutions, decisions and promises. Decisions… promises… we asked you last year to help us raise the number of our membership to 400. We are delighted to let you know that we gave membership number to the last subscriber. Thanks and congratulations to you all! We want to do even better for 1993 and hope to reach or pass the 500 mark by the end of the year. With your continuous support, we should be able to do just that. The more we are the more we can help each other.

VARIETY VOYAGER January 4 to 12, 2014 PROOF ◆ Luxury Small Ship—only 36 Cabins! ◆ 100% Ocean-View ◆ All Shore Excursions Included ◆ Wine and Beer Included on Board ◆ Naturalist Guides Dear Razorbacks on Tour*: Few experiences can match one of the world’s most dramatic voyages, a cruise from one ocean to another through one of the greatest man-made wonders of the world, the Panama Canal. An engineering marvel when it opened one hundred years ago, the 50-mile passage through the Panama Canal continues to astonish the most veteran traveler. Experience fi rsthand the mighty locks that raise and lower ships 85 feet using no other power than the force of gravity, accomplishing in mere hours what would have taken a three-week circumnavigation of South America in years gone by. Just as impressive is the cruise through the lush tropical jungle in the Gaillard Cut, a channel hewn through solid rock eight miles thick where the canal slices through the rugged Continental Divide. We invite you to join us for this voyage of a lifetime featuring the historic Panama Canal during the 2014 centennial-year celebration and the unspoiled rainforests of Costa Rica at the best time of year. Further to our comprehensive itinerary, visit three UNESCO World Heritage sites and Panama’s ancient San Blas Islands, where the Kuna Indians live much as they did centuries ago. Tour one of acclaimed architect Frank Gehry’s newest designs, Panama City’s Biodiversity Museum.
