Researching U.S. Passenger Arrival Records by Jayare Roberts* All genealogists are in the same boatwe are trying to trace an immigrant parent or ancestor. You may uncover clues in obituaries, passports, family sources, and an array of other records available in courthouses and archives. Perhaps the real questions are, "How long will you search for evidence of this pivotal event?" and "Will your search be as long as the voyage of your ancestor?" In the light of family and local history, each immigrant is the sine qua non of America. Yet researchers will say they are stuck because they cannot find any records. The myth that illiterate European peasants left no records in their homeland or in America is disproved by the fact that there are numerous collections of immigration and ethnic documents. You may, in fact, drown in the volume of available materials. The misfortune of most researchers is that they don't spend enough time to use the available records properly. You may save yourself time and effort by concentrating on the passenger arrival records created for the United States government. In the course of your genealogical journey you should observe the following: the general background and history of passenger arrival records the genealogical value and contents of arrival records the availability of passenger records and indexes appropriate search strategies such as the use of indexes

Genealogy Beginning your Family History Cemetery Records Census Church ... Immigration Passenger Lists Overview Passenger lists are among the most frequently requested genealogical materials, and the Library has a strong collection. As immigrants arrived at North American ports, these lists were compiled at the port of entry. The lists document the names of passengers, their age, their sex, and additional information that varies from the first lists of 1565 to the most recently released lists of 1954. Most of the pre-1820 passenger lists have been published in some format. Passenger lists usually contain the name of each passenger, the port from which they came, the name of the ship, and the captain of the ship. Many of the 17th-18th century passenger lists and indexes have been printed in books, pamphlets, or journals. Consult Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1538-1900 by P. William Filby. Pre-1820 Lists There were no laws to require the creation of passenger lists. States, colonies and cities dictated the necessity for lists and therefore, the surviving lists are widely scattered. Virtually all of the existing lists are published and are described in the Passenger and Immigration Lists Bibliography by P. William Filby (2nd edition, Detroit, Gale Research, 1988). The Library holds most of these published lists. Philadelphia was the most popular port of entry in the 18th century. 1820-1891, Customs Passenger Lists

Resource Links National Archives of Canada C-000908 "St. Lawrence River in Winter," by Millicent Mary Chaplin Feb. 1842 In 1865, because there were excellent rail connections and/or inward passage on Lake and River Steamers from Quebec (later from Canadian east coast ports), many thousands of immigrants destined to the US Mid-West and elsewhere in North America also arrived via Canada. DISCUSSION The passenger lists for the sailing ships may contain either a little, or quite a lot of information. The least to expect is the name of "head of household" only, with check marks indicating the numbers and sex, and age grouping of the other members of the party. The most you may expect to find is the full names and ages of all family and/or group members, their place of origin, and in a few cases, their destination. You may also find notes about the birth or death (and date) of an individual. Most lists do have the names of everyone recorded. You will not find these lists to be uniform in their content.
