Germans to America : lists of passengers arriving at U.S. ports
(Book, CD-Rom, Online Content)

Each volume is indexed.

"The original passenger lists for 1850 through 1893, prepared by shipping agents and ships' officers, are now deposited at the Temple-Balch Institute's Center for Immigration Research in Philadelphia and are reproduced chronologically in these volumes by date of each ship's arrival" -- Foreword.

"The two main German ports of embarkation were Bremen and Hamburg, where German officials prepared lists of emigrants. ...The great majority of immigrants came to New York, but many went to New Orleans and Baltimore, with fewer goint to Boston and Philadelphia" -- Foreword.

"After 1891 non-New York ports are no longer listed because the original manifests for Boston, Baltimore, and Philadelphia in Group 36 ... cover only the years from 1820 to 1891. New Orleans continues to 1902 but is irrelevant for Germans after the 1860s" -- Introd.

"The passenger lists reproduced in these volumes are arranged in chronological order by date of arrival. In the 1850-1855 volumes, these lists contain a minimum of 80 percent German surnames and are published in their entirety. Starting in 1856 the selection criterion changed to include all ships with German passengers, regardless of the percentage. Unlike the previous volumes, only those calling themselves Germans are now listed; all other passenger names are deleted. It should be noted that after 1856 these German immigrants include those coming not only from German states or territories but also from countries such as France, Switzerland, or Luxemburg" -- Introd.
