AMERICAN PASSENGER ARRIVAL RECORDS. A Guide to the Records of Immigrants Arriving at American Ports by Sail and Steam: Updated and Revised
|
| Millions of people made their way to America in the most determined and sustained migration the world has ever known. Initially they left traces of their immigration in scattered records and documents. Later their arrival here was documented so minutely that the records resulting are among the largest, the most continuous and the most uniform in the nations archives. These passenger arrival records identify by name, place of origin, and other particulars the vast majority of persons who participated in the great Atlantic migration. This work examines the records in their historical and legal framework, and it explains what they contain, where they can be found, and how they can be used. In effect, it is a road map through the mass of records and archival resources documenting immigrant arrivals from the time of the earliest settlements to the passage of the Quota Acts three centuries later. This new edition features expanded coverage of colonial emigration records, finding aids and reference materials, National Archives microfilm programs and publications, current projects and new developments in immigration research, and more. - United States - General Reference - Immigration |

This collection gives access to material previously difficult to locate for no library in the country can claim to have every issue of every periodical in this compilation.
