Arriving April 27, 1914, at New York on the SS Caledonia from Londonderry April 18, 1914

common information for both: single, servants, able to read and write, British citizens, Irish nationality, last residence: Killowen, nearest relatve in Ireland: Mother Jane Hughes, Ballindoalty, Killowen. destination: sister, Mrs Katie Dwyer, 114 East 53rd St, New York. passage paid by sister, each carrying $25. have never been in the US before. Discharged to sister, Mrs K Dwyer, 114 East 53rd St

[The last notation, "discharged to sister" is probably because Katie was under age. I don't know what the cut off age was, Alicia might have been under age also.
I don't know who Katie Dwyer was. There was a woman by that name on Lexington Ave in 1920 who rented rooms, but I can't say that was her. Her maiden name was Sullivan.]

on the UK Outgoing Passenger Lists, Alicia and Catherine both say they were seamstresses.
