arrival information of anyone who immigrated through a Canadian port between

The National Archives of Canada holds passenger
lists from 1865 to 1935 (Record Group 76, C 1). These lists constitute
the official record of immigration to Canada in that period. A series of
old nominal indexes exist for the period 1925 to 1935. They provide the
volumes and page numbers on which the names of Canadian immigrants appear
in the passenger lists. In cooperation with the National Archives of Canada,
the Pier 21 Society in Halifax, Nova Scotia, has input the information
from the passenger list indexes into this database.
