Title: Passenger Lists and Fragments Thereof from Hamburg and Bremen to Australia and the United States 1846-1849 (German-American Genealogical Research Monograph,)
Description: "All of the passenger lists represent newly discovered material not found elsewhere in official German records. (Extant Hamburg police lists first begin in 1850 and all the Bremen port lists were destroyed, either deliberately by the authorities from time to time or during the fire storm which engulfed Bremen as a result of Allied bombing during the second world war.) Notes of appreciation, or recommendation, were made by passengers, usually at the request of shipowners. Occasionally, complaints and warnings from passengers about ship crews and food aboard ship were published in the newspaper, as well"--Introd.
