Hi Gang, I wish to inquire into a particular area of temporary immigation -- by that I mean the Klondike Gold Rush. Many of the Americans went by ship. Are there particular sites for miner and prospector ships and passenger lists? Were there passenger lists initiated and recorded? It would appear that most, if not all of the Americans, sailed from Seattle, bound for Skagway, Alaska. [Those must have been the days!!] A Great Grand Uncle of mine, Isaac Mallette, was one of those thousands. I would appreciate any assistance and/or suggestions.... Chuck Houston
