Kathy I have never looked at that site. We have access to the indexed ships lists at ProQuest / Heritage Quest web site through connection to our on line public library catalog. That is the ships list we use for searches. You just have to type in the surname and it finds all the possibillities with years. You choose the pages you want o view in the original. A lot of US libraries have this free service on line. You can also access it through your local LDS FHC at the Ancestry.com website to which they subscribe. That site is harder to use than ProQuest but it is better than nothing. Published ships lists in hard copy are available in public libraries as Germans to America. Every so often a new index of all the surnames previously covered is published to help find the names you might want. For German-Bohemians there are many names in the books by Leo Baca -- Czechs to America. Use both resources when looking for German Bohemian ancestors arrival in the U.S. Karen Karen
My problem is that my ancestor sailed in 1892. Everything I've seen (in English) so far, only goes back to 1904...

Thank you, Karen. I have access to Heritage Quest but don't recall seeing anything on Immigration Databases. What I can access is Revolutionary War Pension Files, Census, Books and PERSI. Is Heritage Quest different from one library to another?
