  FamilySearch's index of the San Francisco passenger lists, read by the archive on 20 September 2026, has Mojsze-Wulf Feldberg, born about 1912 in Polish, arriving at San Francisco in 1947 on the General W. H. Gordon. The register's compiled line gives 1912, and the two are 0 years apart, and the name occurs once on the register. The ship's manifest heading says she sailed from Shanghai, and a passenger born in Poland landing at San Francisco in 1947 from Shanghai is the route's end: the refugees who waited out the war there. So the entry is taken as this person's under the archive's rule of 19 September 2026 for records from the route. The sheet is NARA microfilm publication M1410, film 388, image 257, read by the archive on 20 September 2026.
