Salt Lake City Family History Expo 2010-Crossing the Ocean with the Internet by Leslie Albrecht Huber

I attended this class and found it very informative! Leslie did a great job of making us aware of the online resources that are popping up constantly. We talked some about the U.S. Passenger Arrival Lists, CastleGarden.org, EllisIsland.org, and others. I also learned about some online indexes, such as European Passenger Departure Lists. I learned that families didn't always leave from the closest port so it pays to check different ports around the area. One of the best things I learned in this class is that Joe Beine has done some tremendous work and posted it for us to use. Here is a link to his site.
