Passenger Arrivals at the Port of Baltimore
- [View in New Window]
In this volume the researcher has access to the records of the 50,000 immigrants who arrived at the port of Baltimore between 1820 and 1834. Probably three-quarters of the arriving passengers were German, and most of the remainder British or Irish. The data comes from the official Customs Passenger Lists, and the arrangement is alphabetical by surname. The information provided on the passengers includes age, sex, occupation, name of the country to which they belong, name of the country which they intend to inhabit, name of ship, port of embarkation, and date of arrival. In the case of German passengers, even more information is given--places of birth and residence and specific places of destination, for instance. Note that the records of all passengers are given here, not merely heads of families. [R101458]
