Can anyone help read the surname of the person above Lea Tenenbaum please. And is Pal the forename?

This is the link on Ancestry http://interactive.ancestry.com/7488/NYT715_959-0813/4012794811?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.co m%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3fti%3d0%26indiv%3dtry%26db%3dnypl%2 6h%3d4012794811&ssrc=&backlabel=ReturnRecord (the 8th entry down)

Also what do the relationships next to the forename on some entries signify?

Thanks

Is it Tring or Fring?

Looks like Pal & Neph after the name. Friend & nephew? Seems strange though, why would that be needed on the passenger list?
Oh it seems there were 2 persons travelling together. A man and his nephew?

Thanks Sue :)

I was sort of hoping for Dring!

It seems odd about the relationships - it seems to mean we don't have a forename for Tring/Fring/Dring :confused:

Delving further it seems Pal was a first name. There are quite a few with Hungarian, Slovakian and Croatian nationality.

I was trying to read the word typed under the crossing out and it seems to start with Z (which is how I got to the above link!)

4th name up from the bottom. Seems he was Pal Zrinyi and his nephew was Jan and they were Slovakian..

Ooh - many thanks, Sue - that seems to eliminate Dring then, which is probably a great relief :):):)
