Thanks to the terrific volunteer work of Mr. James Rego Nicolau of the San Diego area, I have posted many new passenger ship lists on my website.

The great thing about these extractions is that he has a good recognition of Portuguese names, unlike the extractions done by Ancestry.com and Ellis Island Foundation/LDS.

While the person can be located if you use these other resources as a guide and are lucky enough that they didn't totally butcher the name of the person you seek, it is overall much more likely that the extracted ships I have (now am up to 78 ships) will quickly allow you to find them if they arrived on one of these extracted ships.

Find them all here:

And if you decide you want to add your name to the growing list of volunteers, I can direct you to pick a ship or two for your own extraction. Maybe you'll even get hooked like Mr. Nicolau. I think he's done maybe 40 ships now. There are many more he has extracted that I have not yet uploaded.

Happy hunting.
