• "California, Los Angeles, Passenger Lists, 1907-1948", FamilySearch — index entry for Irena Plockier, 1941: born about 1906, Ladi, Poland. Digitised from NARA microfilm publication M1764 (passenger lists of vessels arriving at Los Angele…
  FamilySearch's index of the Los Angeles passenger lists, read by the archive on 20 September 2026, has Irena Plockier, born about 1906 in Ladi, Poland, arriving at Los Angeles in 1941. The register's compiled line gives 1906, and the two agree. The name occurs once on the register, and a Polish-born passenger landing at Los Angeles in 1941 fits the route through Japan, so the entry is taken as this person's under the archive's rule of 19 September 2026 for records from the route.
