    1. [SCT-RENFREW] New Passenger database from Ancestry.com-frtee for now.
    2. If you are enrolled on Ancestry.co.uk you likely received an E-mail notice of the new U.S. passenger list database on Ancestry giving more than 100 million names of persons arriving at U.S. ports from 1820 to 1960. Many from Scotland sometimes giving county and or city or origin. It’s presently free with Ancestry.co.uk membership. In addition, I have found U.S. federal census records available, even though I do not have membership for these records. If you are not an Ancestry.com member, a free trial is offered. Newspaper reports say it will be free until the end of November. After that it looks like it is $155.00 US a year or 29.95 a month. I found a great uncle’s move from Canada, to the U.S. via Detroit, in 1924, that gave his age, wife’s name, country of birth, street address in Toronto, plus other details. All records are obviously not as complete.

    3. Hi Don, I wonder if you could explain to us, in a bit more detail, what you searched on ancestry.com, to find your great uncle's entry into the US? I have a great uncle too, who supposedly immigrated first to Canada from Liverpool, England abt. 1907), then ended up in Wyoming, US (abt. 1912) Thank you!
