My father came to the USA in Oct 1925 on the Frederik VIII. The manifest does not list whether he was first, second, or steerage class. Is there anyway that I can find out what class he was in?

Mange tak.

Med venlig hilsen
Paul

Hi,

The ship had cabin, tourist and 3rd class in Oct. 1925, I assume, but in Nov. 1925 only cabin and 3rd class.

Thanks Eva. I suspect that my father traveled Cabin class since his father was well to do and I further suspect he went to the USA to represent his father's business interest since he had done that in Germany from 1921 until 1925.

Hej Eva,

I had not seen that video. It certainly was different from the cruise ships of today. Thanks for sharing.

mvh
Paul
