Passenger Ship name needed Please

[Ninnynanny]

I am trying to find the name of a Passenger ship that sailed from Montreal, Canada to Bristol in May/June 1914. Thank you

[craft1948]

Do you have the name of a specific passenger?

[Ninnynanny]

Yes I have the names of both passengers but not of the ship that they travelled back to England on. Thank you for your quick reply.

[McMouse]

As you've got the passenger names should be easy. Just google shipping passenger lists and you'll find pleanty of sites.

Thank you craft1948 and dothawkes31 for your replies. Please can you help, I have spent all day trying to find the passenger lists for the ships mentioned. The family will have travelled on one of those boats, but I cannot find the lists. Names of passengers; George William Hodgkins, wife Alice and son George William who would be then aged 8. I successfully found all the details of their outward journey to Canada but need help with the return voyage. Thank you in anticipation.
