Those Elusive Immigrants
Collection Search
Description
Many researchers feel that some
of their genealogical problems would be
solved if only they could find their
ancestors' names on passenger lists.
Spurred on by this hope, they continue
a search which often proves frustrating
due to a lack of records. "Those Elusive
Immigrants" represents the first-ever at-
tempt to assist these researchers by
publishing a complete aggregate list of
vessels arriving here with passengers. In
the present article, the years 1790-1829
are covered. Ships arriving in 1830 and
later will be included in a subsequent
issue of The Island Magazine.
