Inspired by Poppy Dixon’s data from Ellis Island, I downloaded a list showing all Lomases and all Penders listed on the site.
I then looked for likely entries and followed them up as well as I could. I have picked up some of the other members of the troupe because their fares were paid by Bob Pender or Robert Lomas, but I may have missed someone.
Note that where details are unclear I use a question mark (?) to indicate that I’m not sure of how I’ve transcribed it.
