Migrations from the Russian Empire CD
===========================
In June, Genealogy.com will be offering a CD version of Migrations
from the Russian Empire: List of Passengers Arriving at the Port of
New York. The CD includes the period 1850-1893. A second CD will
follow at some unknown date for the years 1894-1897. The price has not
yet been determined, but typically Genealogy.com CDs of this type cost
in the $40-50 range.
The CD will contain information extracted from the original passenger
lists--the only records that furnish proof of the arrival in the
United States of millions of immigrants from the Russian Empire.
During that time period, the Russian Empire included today's Belarus,
Lithuania, Latvia, Moldova, northeastern Poland, Russia and Ukraine.
For each passenger, the CD includes the date of arrival; ship's name;
person's name; age; sex; occupation; and in some cases, place of
origin and destination. There is an alphabetical index of all persons.
Most of the arrivals are for the Port of New York, but some other
ports are included for certain years.
Their Internet site is http://www.genealogy.com. Avotaynu plans to
sell the CD as soon as it becomes available. |
