This isn't much help and has no names.....from The Morning Chronicle - July 9, 1864.

....."The passengers in the cars were emigrants who came out from Europe in the ship Necker. This ship had 565 passengers, about 538 of whom went on in the cars. Of these there are saved 384, leaving for lost 154, besides those who have died since.....Most all the passengers were Germans, Bohemians, and Italians."
