Hello Eduardo526, and welcome!

Here are some resources that MAY be of help! :-)

http://www.archives.gov/research/immigr ... -1957.html
http://genealogy.about.com/cs/immigrati ... r_us_3.htm
http://thegenealogyspot.com/ShipsLists- ... york.shtml


If you provide names, I may be able to access the information on Ancestry for you. They have NY passenger lists through 1957.

EDIT TO ADD:

Located the Passenger list for the Vulcania, arriving NY December 15, 1954.. HOWEVER,
The lists only have crew members (about 497)...
To help with your further research, I have saved the image of the first page that includes arrival information about the ship, AND a list of detainees from the ship...
Maybe these images will hold a clue for you?
