passenger lists



I see that a lot of people are looking for immigration in the United States. There were 36 points of entry ranging from Mobile Alabama to Georgetown South Carolina. The American passenger lists are all kept by the under noted centres. I hope that this information may be of use.

The National Archives, General Services Administration, Washington, D.C. 20408, U.S.A.

and The Washington National Record Centre, Washington, D.C. 20509, U.S.A. have most of

the American ships passenger lists that are in existence. These date mostly from 1820 to

1902. The earliest immigration Passenger Lists are for the port of Philadelphia and begin in

1883.

Most other ports have records beginning somewhat later than this, with many starting in

1891.
