Immigration Records - How did your Ancestors Get Here?

I guess many people are located in the country that they are in due to immigration. Whether you a descended from the English Pilgrims who arrived in America in 1620 or the thousands of immigrants processed through Ellis Island between 1892 and 1954, your family will be part of immigration history and this can be used as another great genealogical tool in the hunt for your ancestors.

I have listed below some useful links which may be of great assistance when trying to locate immigration records.

If in the USA you may want to check these sites out:-

If in Australia some of your options are:-

In the UK you may want to look at these sites:-


Again if I have not included your part of the world, you may want to try a Google search like "XXXXX immigration records" where the XXXXX is the name of the country. You tend to find that a lot of information is available from the national archives of each country.

Until next time!

Regards,
Peter Annett
