Some sites are listed under several topics due to the
vast amount of information contained within the sites.






../../images/blu_sm.gif   Great Lakes Passenger Lists
The mission and purpose of this site is to bring together researchers and records of passengers lists or ship manifests as they pertain to travel on the Great Lakes
Since the lakes were a good way to travel people coming into port would book a ship or boat to the inner part of the Americas to get to their destinations
Many people from Europe also traveled to Canada first and then to the USA. Border crossings were quite common as an entrance to the USA
