    1. Steve Morse's Ship-Lists Project
    2. Got this from another list: Subject: Steve Morse's Ship-Lists Project Several months ago I posted a message stating that Steve had a list of every ship arrival into Ellis Island, and for most of them he even had links back to the manifest pages. It was part of an ongoing project. Now I learned that Steve has just completed this project after working on it for two years. His team of over 50 volunteers went through every one of the 3700 rolls of Ellis Island microfilms from 1892 to 1924. For each arrival they found, they recorded the roll, volume, frame, date, ship-name, and ports. Now that it is complete, there exists for the first time a searchable list of every ship arrival along with links to the associated manifest pages. The list consists of a total of 84,000 ship arrivals. The searchable list can be accessed by clicking on the "Ship-Lists" link in the Ellis Island section of Steve's website at http://stevemorse.org. If you have any questions, please direct them to Steve and not to me -- his e-mail address is at the top of his website. - Diane Jacobs New York Martha Moreira Yunis _www.villatortuga.com_ (http://www.villatortuga.com/)
