Thanks for phoning Castle Garden about the site being down, Terry. Now, Castle Garden is up and running, Folks! http://castlegarden.org/ For those new to genealogy, this was the central port of immigration in NYC before Ellis Island opened in 1892. As with the Ellis Island people search link, at http://www.libertyellisfoundation.org/passenger, both search engines are based upon transcribed records. Use their results as clues before viewing the actual ship manifests online at Ancestry or in person at NYC NARA. I hope this brings you closer to your ancestors.

The lady thanked me and said they'll 'reset' the site and it should be up and running later today. Terry -----Original Message----- From: Pat Connors via Thanks all that replied. I now wonder how long it has been down? It is a great site and one that has helped solve a number of my mysteries. Maybe we should just all contribute and they will get it up again. I am just wondering if it is me or the website. I cannot get it to do a search. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com [email protected]
