For some passenger lists, the Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild has

SC>The National ARchives in Washington, DC keeps a record of ship's
SC>passenger lists, at least from the 19th century. Since you have the name
SC>of the ship and the date of its arrival, it should be fairly easy to track
SC>down. I suggest you contact the Natiohal Archives to see whether they can
SC>research this for you. Another possibility is to search the Ellis Ilsand
SC>website, whch was recently made available to the public. Since Ellis
SC>Island opened in 1892, and all my ancestors arrived in the US before that,
SC>I haven't used that resource myself.
