Emigranter USA via Quebec

[Gert Persson]

Jag har flera släktingar från Värmland som for till Quebec via Christiania. Hur kan jag spåra dem vidare? Jag vet att några hamnade i Cokato, Minnesota, bytte namn osv. Men några som for i samma sällskap har jag "tappat bort". Finns det dokumentation i Quebec på ankomna och vart de ämnade sig?

Emigrant records through Canada generally begin in 1866.  Try looking at Library and Archives Canada.  https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/passenger-lists/passenger-lists-quebec-port-1865-1900/Pages/introduction.aspx


There are some records for the quarantine hospital at Grosse Île that are earlier: https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/immigrants-grosse-ile-1832-1937/Pages/immigrants-grosse-ile.aspx


I have found it very difficult to track any emigrant who arrived in Quebec before 1865 and settled in the United States.
