Passenger List for SS African Endeavor, Farrell Lines, Cape Town to New York, 1954

Launched in 1939, SS Delbrasil ran between New Orleans and South America. During World War II, the ship became a U.S. Navy troop transport under the name USS George F. Elliott. Following the war, American South African Lines -- later, Farrell Lines -- acquired the ship, rechristened it SS African Endeavor, and operated it between New York City and Cape Town, South Africa.
