    Ship Passenger Lists to Canada Searches

    Before 1965 Canadian shipping companies were not required by the government to create and retain their passenger list manifests, therefore there are no comprehensive passenger lists to Canada before that time. There are multiple search engines to Canada; be sure to scroll down to search each one. Each search engine uses a different database.

    An Exploration of Canadian Immigration Records
     First, you should know that there are no comprehensive lists of immigrant arrivals in Canada prior to 1865. Until that year, shipping companies were not required to create, retain, or supply their passenger lists to the government offices.
     
     There are apparently a few of the lists that include passenger names, and the "Miscellaneous Immigration Index" in the archives' reference room is accessible with those few records. The contents relate to immigrants from the British Isles to Quebec and Ontario between the years 1800 and 1849. Read more
