| | == How Do I Search This Collection? == |
| | Before searching this collection, it is helpful to know: |
| | *The name of your ancestor |
| | *The approximate date of arrival |
| If you do not know this information, check the U.S. census records after 1900. | | If you do not know this information, check the U.S. census records after 1900. |

| | === How Do I Analyze the Results? === |
| | Compare each result from your search with what you know to determine if there is a match. This may require viewing multiple records or images. Keep track of your research in a [[Use_Appropriate_Forms#Prepare_a_Research_Log |research log]]. |
| | == What Do I Do Next? == |
| | Indexes and transcriptions may not include all the data found in the original records. Look at the actual image of the record, if you can, to verify the information and to find additional information. |
| | === I Found the Person I was Looking for, What Now? === |
| | *Add any new information to your records |
| | *Use the information found in the record to find other records such as emigrations, port records, and ship’s manifests |
| | *Use the record to learn your ancestor’s foreign and “Americanized” names, if they were different |
| | *Use the record to learn the place of origin and find their church and vital records such as birth, baptism, and marriage records |
| | *Use the information found in the record to find land and probate records |
| | *Use the record to see if other family members who may have immigrated with the person you are looking for are listed and have additional information or leads; you may also find additional information on new family members in censuses |
| | *Repeat this process with additional family members found, to find more generations of the family |
| | === I Can’t Find the Person I’m Looking For, What Now? === |
| | *If your ancestor does not have a common name, collect entries for every person who has the same surname. This list can help you find possible relatives |
| | *If you cannot locate your ancestor in the locality in which you believe they lived, then try searching records of a nearby town or county |
| | *Try different spellings of your ancestor’s name |
| | *Remember that sometimes individuals went by [http://usgenweb.org/research/nicknames.html nicknames] or alternated between using first and middle names. Try searching for [http://genealogy.about.com/od/first_names/fl/nickname-given-name-equivalents.htm these names] as well |
| | *Look for the Declaration of Intent soon after the immigrant arrived. Then look for the Naturalization Petition five years later, when the residency requirement would have been met. Look for naturalization records in federal courts, then in state, county, or city courts. An individual may have filed the first and final papers in different courts and sometimes in a different state if the person moved. Immigrants who were younger than 18 when they arrived did not need to file a Declaration of Intent as part of the process |
| | *Check other possible ports of entry |

| === Search the Collection === | | == Other FamilySearch Collections == |
| | | These collections may have additional materials to help you with your research. |
| To search the collection fill in the requested information in the boxes on the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about the individuals in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person. You may need to look at the information on several individuals comparing the information about them to your ancestors to make this determination. Keep in mind:
| | === FamilySearch Catalog === |
| | | *{{FSC|4092169|item|disp=Texas, indexes and manifests of arrivals at the Port of Del Rio, 1906-1953 NARA A3395}} |
| *There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
| |
| *You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
| |
| *Your ancestor may have used different names, or variations of their name, throughout their life.
| |
| *If your ancestor used an alias or a nickname, be sure to check for those alternate names.
| |
| *Even though these indexes are very accurate they may still contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings, misinterpretations, and optical character recognition errors if the information was scanned.
| |
| | |
| For tips about searching on-line collections see the on-line article [[FamilySearch Search Tips and Tricks]].
| |
| | |
| === Using the Information === | |
| | |
| When you have located your ancestor’s record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors. Add this new information to your records of each family. For example, you can use passenger lists to:
| |
| | |
| *Learn an immigrant’s place of origin
| |
| *Confirm their date of arrival
| |
| *Learn foreign and “Americanized” names
| |
| *Find records in his or her country of origin such as emigrations, port records, or ship’s manifests.
| |
|
| |
|
| === Tips to Keep in Mind === | | === FamilySearch Historical Records === |
| | | *{{RecordSearch|1803932|United States Border Crossings from Mexico to United States, 1903-1957}} |
| *If your ancestor had a common name, be sure to look at all the entries for a name before you decide which is correct.
| |
| *Continue to search the passenger lists to identify siblings, parents, and other relatives in the same or other generations who may have immigrated at the same time.
| |
| *If your ancestor has an uncommon surname, you may want to obtain the passenger list of every person who shares your ancestor’s surname if they lived in the same county or nearby. You may not know how or if they are related, but the information could lead you to more information about your own ancestors. | |
| | |
| === Unable to Find Your Ancestor? ===
| |
| | |
| *Check for variant spellings of the name.
| |
| *Look for other indexes. Records are often indexed by local historical and genealogical societies.
| |
| *Search the indexes of other port cities.
| |
| *Try alternative search methods such as only filling in the surname search box (or the given name search box) on the landing page leaving the other box empty and then click on search. This should return a list of everyone with that particular name. You could then browse the list for individuals that may be your ancestor.
