Hi Wendy, I have exactle the same problem as you. I think that because so many went to the US and geneology is a very popular thing in America, you have more of a chance of finding what your looking for. My great grandfather emigrated from Germany to England around 1880 / 1890s, but I have hit a stone wall in my efforts to locate any record of him. If you look on the National Archives website www.nationarchives.gov.uk you can find the records of passenger list, but I don't believe that you can access them on the internet, I think you have to get in touch with them for details of how to look at the records. You can also find list of passengers who were shipwrecked off the coast of England!!! Anyway, sorry I wasn't of much help. Good luck!!!!
