Try www.ellisisland.org Look up your grandfather's name; if he came through Ellis Island, he will be there. Then click on "Passenger Manifest" and it will give you a lot of information, not only on the ship, but on who he traveled with. It's a great site!

If your grandfather doesn't come up, try alternate spellings for his name...sometimes they wrote down the names wrong....Show more

I would go to a Geneaology Center, or at least website. Boats probably have records on microfilm, which might contain your grandfather's name. I assume he emigrated to New York: if you are near the area, that would be helpful. The website I linked to looks helpful....Show more

You might see if Ellis Island has a website, but I know the Sons of Italy in America has one, though you might have to be a member to gain such info....Show more
