How do I use the search to find Debs Best Websites thread? Since changing the format of these boards I'm never able to find things. I want the Ellis Island passenger list that is the free one. Thanks some kind person.

Thanks everyone

Thanks for nudging it up Jim. Never used bookmark before, thanks for that.

Looks like they have changed the Ellis Island site as it seems you have to become a member now to see the records. Been a few years since I last went on it so expect there are far more records.

Yes, you have to become a member but it doesn't cost anything.
