Product description
Review
These will be useful in comprehensive genealogical collections and also in those collections that are interested in migration patterns.--American Reference Books Annual
Volumes 1 through 16 of Italians to America covered immigration for the period January 1880 to April 1901. Now with these two latest volumes, researches can obtain information on Italian immigrants through March 1902. As in the previous books, the names of the immigrants are found in an alphabetical every-name index, which contains the page number in the volume where the passenger may be found. (The bulk of each volume consists of passenger lists.) The age, sex, occupation, village and destination of the immigrant, as well as the name of the ship, its port of departure, port of arrival, and date of arrival are also found there. The occupation, village, and destination appear in coded form. Consulting the tables at the beginning of the volumes will demystify these occupation, village, and destination codes.--St. Louis Genealogical Society Quarterly
With names presented in chronological order by each ship's date of arrival, the reference uses the original passenger lists, transcribed by shipping agents and ships' officers, that were filed by vessels entering US ports. Each name shows the traveler's age, sex occupation, origin, and destination. The names of non-Italian passengers were omitted. The volume, covering arrivals between October 1901 and March 1902, includes an index of surnames and an introduction to the history of Italian migration to the US.--Reference and Research Book News
