This Family Archive includes information on over 1.35
million Indiana residents who were counted in the 1860
United States Census. Retyped and fielded for easy
searching, the 1860 Census is especially valuable because
it includes information on entire households rather than
just heads of household. Also, unlike census indexes which

of the information fields from an individual's census
record. For your searching convenience, Genealogy.com has
provided an electronic name index that allows you to search
for your ancestors quickly and easily.

* Emigrants to Pennsylvania, 1641-1819: A Consolidation of
Ship Passenger Lists from the Pennsylvania Magazine of
History and Biography
(Book - Amazon.com) :
This important collection of ship passenger lists from The
Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography ranges from
brief name lists to full-blown articles giving passengers'
places of origin, occupations, wives and children, dates of
arrival, etc. With minor exceptions the lists document
arrivals at the port of Philadelphia between 1682 and 1819
and identify approximately 6,000 immigrants, mainly British
and German, the majority being named in two extensive lists
of indentured servants and apprentices. Most of these lists
were transcribed from manuscripts in the possession of the
Historical Society of Pennsylvania.
