Germans To America Information
"In the 1850-1855 volumes, these lists contain a minimum of 80 percent
German surnames and are published in their entirety. Starting in 1856
the selection criterion changes to include all ships with German
passengers, regardless of the percentage. Unlike the previous volumes,
only those calling themselves Germans are now listed; all other
passenger names are deleted. It should be noted that after 1856 these
German immigrants include those coming not only from German states or
territories but also from countries such as France, Switzerland, or
Luxembourg."
As far as I know the series is being continued as the last 4 volumes listed below
were published in January of 2000.
NOTE: Not all German Passengers are found in these books. I have had many
lookups result in not finding the passengers requested. It is discouraging, be
sure to check for every variation of spelling possible.
