Background[edit | edit source]
The Spanish American Genealogical Association can be a good resource to find your hispanic ancestors, whether they came from Mexico or Spain.
Passenger Arrival Records[edit | edit source]
Many people who moved to Texas originally arrived in the United States at the port of New Orleans. The National Archives and the Family History Library have passenger lists for New Orleans dating from 1820 to 1921, with indexes to 1952.
Galveston passenger lists from 1846 to 1871, 1896 to 1921, and index 1896-1951 are available at the National Archives and FHL film 830233, and are indexed in two sources:
Ships Passenger Lists, Port of Galveston, Texas, 1846-1871. Easley, South Carolina: Southern Historical Press, 1984. FHL book 976.4139/G1 W3s.
Blaha, Albert J. Passenger Lists for Galveston, 1850-1855. [Houston, Texas: A.J. Blaha], 1985. FHL book 976.4139/G1 W3b and FHL fiche 6099940. This includes some Indianola arrivals.
The National Archives and the Family History Library also have Galveston arrival lists for 1893 and 1896 to 1921 FHL films 1414827-40; 1414865-70 and indexes from 1896 to 1906 and 1906 to 1951 FHL films 1402451-60. Passenger lists and indexes are listed in the catalog under TEXAS - EMIGRATION AND IMMIGRATION.
