The White Star Line Memorial Foundation has an extensive collection of newspapers from the U.S., British, Australian, and other locations spanning the history of the White Star Line from the years 1845 to 1935. We also have photographs, engravings, illustrations, and other representations of many of the ships, as well as passenger lists and other documents.

We do not provide genealogical research other than to attempt to confirm a given person was aboard a given vessel on a given voyage/date.

Please keep in mind that our purpose is to raise funds for charities and provide educational programs. Given the high volume of requests it is necessary for us to charge a minimal fee to offset the time spent researching materials for individuals.

Our fees are as follows:

$10.00 per hour search fee. Most searches take no more than one hour.

Copies of documents or other items in our archives/collection are as follows:

$20 per photograph/illustration.

$1 per copy of any document or newspaper article.
