Utah Emigration and Immigration: Difference between revisions

Utah, being entirely inland, has no seaports. Immigrants would have initially arrived at a port on the coast. To search those records, see [[United States Immigration Online Genealogy Records|'''United States Immigration Online Genealogy Records.''']] Many Latter-day Saint immigrants leaving Europe and Great Britain came on chartered ships from '''Liverpool, England'''. Between 1840 and 1854, '''New Orleans''' was the major port of arrival for Latter-day Saint immigrant ships. Between 1855 and 1890, most of the ships arrived in '''New York, Philadelphia, or Boston'''.
