Evening David.
The Departures List from the UK and the Arrivals List in Canada, are two totally-separate documents, so can differ to a fair degree.
Extreme examples of differing contents are "Man overboard", ie lost at sea; and any Births on Board.
I have looked at the Canadian Arrivals List (Archives Canada), very poor quality and feint*, just as you stated, with the family at the very top of the particular page.
*Amazed that the entry was found!
The UK Departures List (FMP, Page 40 of 56) has the entries I extracted, almost at the foot of its page; and very clearly written - so no straining, no doubts about its contents.
The two documents differ considerably in general layout, plus the Canadian one has many over-stamped and over-written comments, in addition to conventional information.
Definitely different hand-writing, The Canadian "Ripley" has a lead-in to the "R", the FMP does not.
Sequence across the columns is different-
Canadian
Ripley / Mary(2 columns)
FMP
Mrs M Ripley (1 column)
Additionally, the Canadian one has each child's First Name in Full, eg "Violet".
The FMP document has only Initials, eg "V".
Given the other information we have garnered, I accept that the Canadian document has the children correctly identified - BUT an interestin aspec is that the Bookers and Mary are apparently travelling on the same "Contract Ticket Number" 28288, so was there some connection between the two families?
