The database if free to search for names and dates, however if you find a name they then ask if you'd like to purchase the "full" document. That will be your choice. Not all names may be found there. The terms and conditions explain their database.

The database does not contain all passenger lists..." by W.S. Mller Good luck! Kathleen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Hi James, I only entered the name as a wildcard search: Surname: Becker First Name: Jo% and this is what I came up with as to 3 names closest to the birth year ... I did not enter a travel date nor a birthdate. You may want to try approx. emigration years. >From Hamburg "Link to Your Roots": >From URL: http://linktoyourroots.hamburg.de/ltyr/index.html Passenger Number / Surname / First Name / State of Origin / Marital Status / Date of Birth / Destination / Attendant Family Members / Category __________________________________________________________________ Hamburg Passenger Record: 00.0082 Becker, Josef 1853/1854 Buenos Aires none d 99.0001 Becker Josef verheiratet 1857/1858 New York yes i 01.0010 Becker Josef Russland 1857/1858 Buenos Aires yes d Category symbols: d direct emigration i indirect emigration n emigrant not on emigration ship Regards, Kathleen ___________________________________________________________________ --- "James HILLS Jr." <jandphills@sbcglobal.net> wrote: Can someone enlighten me as to how to insert the following information into the site for a search: Name: Jacob Becker(Joseph Jacob Becker) DOB: 25 December(12) 1854 Travel date: 1865 Above only information known of assumed.
