The book series Germans to America is up to volume 67. (25-Sep-2006) This series indexes passenger arrival lists from US ports, giving names, ages, occupations, and sometimes places of origin for many German immigrants, grouped by families. It also lists the ship, ports, and the date of the passenger ship list. The quality of the transcription varies. Due to its inclusion criteria, it is to be considered an incomplete index to German passengers, but it still can be quite useful. Make sure to consult the original passenger lists.
