'''''No single index lists everyone.''''' Each index covers different years and has its individual strengths and weaknesses. For example, if the emigrant departed in 1899 (between 1890 and 1913) check the Internet partial index first. If the emigrant departed in 1854, search the Klüber 2 Index, or the alphabetical passenger lists themselves for that year. If the emigrant departed about 1869 or 1870, search the two sets of Klüber indexes first, then the Fifteen-Year Index, and then the handwritten indexes direct and indirect. | '''''No single index lists everyone.'''''
