Migrations Requests
Please send queries to the submitters of the information ONLY, not to the Migrations staff. The Migrations staff can not do research for you, but we can try to make it easier to do your own! If you don't find your ancestors in the database, SUBMIT THEM so somebody else will be able to! We also provide several links to check out to try to find additional information after you find your ancestors. If you have any problems with the site, please contact Support as soon as possible.
