Spelling wasn't exact, it's always a good idea to use
variant spellings when searching for an ancestor. For some
tips on using search engines see "Using Search Engines to
Find Ancestors" at http://olivetreegenealogy.blogspot.com/

I'm confused - why are you looking in Ellis Island when
your family arrived in Baltimore Maryland?

Ellis Island was a New York port of arrival, you've done
the right thing by ordering microfilm for Baltimore
Maryland, now all you need to do is sit back and wait for
it to arrive.

If you still need a list of NARA and LDS Film Numbers for
Ships to Maryland, after 1820, see
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/filmnos_baltmd.shtml

For online Ships to Maryland see

If you want to search multiple websites at once for
passenger lists, there is a custom search engine for Ships
going to Maryland at
