Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was a key immigration port from colonial times through the early 20th century. Passenger lists date back to the 1700s and are crucial for tracing German, Irish, and Italian immigrants. Quaker and Mennonite migrations are well documented. After 1820, federal manifests grew increasingly standardized. These records are essential for uncovering the roots of families who settled in Pennsylvania’s industrial centers and rural areas alike.
