Basically the Ellis Island Search website tells:

- If they passed through Ellis Island
- The date
- The ship’s name
- The departure port
- City of origin

I followed up on both sides of the family - got a blank area before 1845 and finally lost interest as the number of persons with the identical name and surname on PEI were so numerous and even with traveling to PEI the chances of running it down accurately in a short time were slim to none -

Interesting. I know 3 out of 5. The ship’s name doesn’t matter, lol.
