Cheri Re: Maria Isabel da Silva The information you provided in your message allowed me to find my grandmothers passport registration dated Oct. 5, 1900-1902 livro 1 0000277. She is the first one listed on the page. Her brother Francisco Furtado traveled with her. They arrived October 26,1900, Ellis Island on the Dona Maria Now I will search for him. Thank you Elaine Mendonca Reiling

It seems like most registered a couple of weeks before the boat sailed. I start on the date the boat arrived in America and start going back in time until I find them. That way I don't miss them and searching when they are sailing (and I know darn well they won't appear in that section of the passaportes) allows me to get used to the handwriting and format of the records.
