==> Passenger and Immigration Lists: New York, 1820-1850
======================================================================
Passenger lists are important primary sources of arrival data for the
vast majority of immigrants to the United States in the nineteenth
century. In the mid-1800s, immigrants (particularly Irish, Germans,
and Italians) flocked to the port of New York. Indexed and easy to
search, this database references approximately 1.6 million individuals
who arrived in New York between January 7, 1820 and December 31, 1850.

==> Ontario and Nova Scotia Settlers, 1790-1860
======================================================================
Early settlers of Nova Scotia and Ontario included American colonists
(particularly Loyalists) as well as English, Scottish, and Irish
immigrants. Among the six titles reproduced here, you'll find historical
essays on the settlement of Nova Scotia and Ontario, Loyalist lists,
population returns, maps, and immigration records.

==> Genealogical Records: Irish Source Records, 1500s-1800s
======================================================================
The information collected here is especially valuable since nearly
all of Ireland's pre-1901 census records were lost in a 1922 fire at
the Public Records Office in Dublin. This database includes extensively
researched reconstructions of the 1841 and 1851 censuses as well as
transcriptions of the surviving 1851 census fragments for County Cork.
In addition, you'll find record of wills that were abstracted or
copied before the fire.

======================================================================
==> Scotch-Irish Settlers in America, 1500s-1800s
======================================================================
Approximately 215,000 individuals referenced. Genealogically valuable
because passenger and immigration lists can be an invaluable primary
source for tracing most immigrants to the United States, particularly
in the 19th century.

==> Nova Scotia - Census (1770, 1773, 1787)
======================================================================
This data set is an index to parts of the 1770, 1773, and 1778 Nova
Scotia censuses. The majority of the records are from 1770. The 1770
records include parts of New Brunswick that were at the time part of
Nova Scotia. Information contained in this data set includes the name
of the individual, the township, district, county, and/or province
in Canada under which the individual is found in the census, the
page number on the microfilm the individual is found on, and the
year of the census. Note: each entry may not contain all of this
information.

==> Land Records: What You Can Learn, and Some Pitfalls to Avoid
======================================================================
Land records kept by states, counties, or towns were not ma de with the
future genealogist in mind; nonetheless, they are among the most useful
and reliable sources we have, particularly to identify spouses and sort
out the identities of different people with the same name. Sometimes
a single record will name members of several generations in a single
family.

Land records can conveniently be considered in two broad classes, based
on whether they were originally created to administer a tax system,
or to provide evidence of land ownership and transfers...

======================================================================
==> Tracing Great-Uncle 'Dutch'
======================================================================
Direct ancestors aren’t the only people I want to research. I believe
that studying an entire family group is important. When I’m working on
my direct ancestors, I want to know when and where they were born,
where in the sequence of family births they were, and the relationships
they had with their siblings and other people. I can’t tell you how
many times I’ve reached the dreaded brick wall with one direct
ancestor, only to sidestep to one or more siblings’ records and
achieve a successful breakthrough! Even if I don’t have a brick wall
to penetrate, I like to learn as much as I can about the family group,
including all the siblings...
