Hello Karen,

If your ancestors settled in Philadelphia then you might want to check
the Philadelphia indexes first...

Philadelphia Passenger List Index 1800-1906 (alphabetical)
http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/philly1800.html

Philadelphia Passenger List Index 1883-1948 (soundex)
http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/philly1883.html

If you wish to search the indexes for New York, Boston or other ports
you can find those listed here...

Finding Passenger Lists 1820-1940s (arrivals at US Ports)
http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/passengers.html

Good luck with your search.

Regards,
Joe
