I am attempting to locate information regarding the Ship Julius Caesar and its sailings around 1830, if any such information exists. Family history has it that my husband's ancestors came on the Julius Caesar from England to the Pennsylvania area around 1830.

You're in luck, because PA ships lists have been kept, and are on microfilm, as far back as 1800 (it was not a requirement that they be kept until 1820) There are indexes you can use to search for the surname you are interested in For a complete list of film numbers for ships going to PA after 1820, see http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/filmnos_pa.shtml Find the film you need and write down the NARA or Family History Centre film number you need. Then you can order the film in to your nearest FHC or have NARA do the lookup for you. The staff of the National Archives will undertake a search of the original records for a fee If you want to try your luck ONline, there is a custom search engine that will search most Internet sites with ships going to PA. See http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/usa_genealogy/ and choose PENNSYLVANIA from the state choices. Scroll down to the yellow search engine.

Cindy, I noticed the email from Marj where she mentions the Julius Caesar (a bark / ship) which was sailing from London to Quebec. I think though that yours was a "packet ship" mentioned in the advertisement below. http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/Arrivals/1824a.htm New Line of Liverpool Packets : We understand that a new line of Packets has been established to run from Liverpool to Philadelphia, and sail on the 20th of each month. It consists of the ships Florida, Julius Caesar, Delaware, Colossus and Courier : and is owned we understand, by Messrs. Spackman & Wilson, and John W. Downing, of Philadelphia, and by Mr. Jeremiah Thompson, of this city. Several of these vessels have traded to this port : the business attached to which will now centre in Philadelphia. There is now two lines of packets between Philadelphia and Liverpool. American paper Sue -- TheShipsList Website http://www.theshipslist.com/
