I am constantly looking for Passenger Lists of the Groote Beer. This ship made 105 sailings to Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand with Dutch migrants. If you have any Passenger lists please email me. hugo@accountant.com
I found a menu for Christmas Day, 1949 dinner on the Groote Beer. At that
time it was still a troop ship sailing from Batavia (Indonesia) to
Rotterdam. My cousin was assigned officer's accommodation on the trip,
although he was not an officer (that's another story). They sailed from
Batavia on December 16, 1949, but I don't know when they arrived back in
Holland. I'm not sure if everyone on board got this meal, but the officers certainly
did.
THE MENU: Potage Tortue, ---Sole au vin blanc, ---- Tournedos Clamart,
---- Poulet de graine rotie, Compote Melee, ---- Pouding de cabinet,
Sauce rum, ---- Fruit, ---- Cafe.
