Emigration from the United Kingdom to America, Volume 18: List of Passengers Arriving at U.S. Ports, July 1881-December 1881

This series on Emigration from the United Kingdom to America concentrates on U.K. emigration in the period 1870-1897, listing migrants from the U.K. who arrived in New York. The original passenger lists transcribed by shipping agents and ship’s officers and filed by all vessels entering U.S ports have been used in the preparation of Emigration from the United Kingdom to America. Presented in chronological order by each ship’s date of arrival, these passenger lists provide the names of ships, ports of departure, and arrival and debarkation dates. The researcher can also locate data regarding a person’s age, sex, and occupation, as well as village of origin and destination when reported.
