Hi Barbara, You have all the information you need to order your ship manifest information from NARA. Use the link below to go to the National Archives and Records Administration web site. There you will find instructions on the form you will need and how to go about sending for the information you want. There is an email link to contact them with questions if you don't find the category you require. Make sure to request the entire ship manifest (if that is what you want) or you will receive just the information pertaining to your requested ancestor(s).

James and Thomas LaViers were on board. I would like to get the Captain's name and see the whole passenger list. In Nov 1864 Jame's wife and three children, Margaret, John and Henry arrived.
