    3. Dear Listers, You all may remember us discussing the immigration of the Palatines to England and from there to the States with the help of Queen Anne. The following fits right in with that which I'm about to convey. According to Ancestry, we can now share with friends items found online. So I've done a little test, using Karl ROUSSIN as the guinea pig' only because his ancestors came at a very early time of the immigration process. This may be a way for him to scour the 300+ pp for passengers from the Palatinate. There is this wonderful publication available online, titled: "Pennsylvania German Pionesrs: A Publication of the Original Lists of Arrivals in the Port of Philadelphia from 1727-1808, Vol. I. To Karl: please tell us, whether you are able to read the entire volume, all 300+ pages of it or whether it "shares" only the page that I was on when I clicked "share". The problem with the passenger lists is that they are NOT indexed. Indexing them might be something that Wolf might consider. I would assume that this book is now part of the public domain. Karl, please report back to the forum. Ursula ____________________________________________________ There'll come a time, when you'll have no more time.

I don't know what Karl did, but I have no problems with: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~pagermanpioneers/ There seem to be a lot of passengers and information and this would be a great addition to our database.. Any volunteers around to help me ?? This would be great.. Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend, Wolf
