. These records add to their Immigration Records Collection, which also includes more than 100 million names from the largest online collection of U.S. passenger lists, from 1820 to 1960.
Searching Microfilm Records
Once you know your ancestor's state of entry, you can search
microfilms. Most states are indexed, so this will make your
job slightly easier. You can order films in to a nearby
Family History Centre, or have NARA do the job (once you
have precise details)
The staff of the National Archives will undertake a search
of the original records for a fee but you must know the name
of the ship, the date of arrival, and the port of arrival.
To obtain a search request form, write to: General Reference
Branch (NNRG),
National Archives and Records Administration,
7th and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW,
Washington, DC 20408
and
request NATF Form 81, Order for Copies of Ship Passenger
Arrival Records The cost of a search using NATF Form 81 as of November 2000 is $17.25
You can also order National Archives (NARA) forms online at http://www.archives.gov/global_pages/inquire_form.html

St. Albans, Vermont, District
In 1895 Canada and USA established a joint inspection system. Passengers arriving in Canada who intended to go on to United States were inspected by US Officials at the Canadian Port of Arrival, then enumerated on US immigration lists.
Immigrants were also given inspection cards which they turned in to US Officials once they were on board trains going to United States. Two sets of records were created - passenger lists and compiled inspection cards.
These CANADIAN BORDER CROSSING records were microfilmed by INS in 1950 as 5 publications for NARA - M1461-M1465. They cover 1895-1954 and are indexed although large sections of the films are unreadable. The originals were destroyed after filming. They do NOT include Canadians before 1906! Only non-Canadians were enumerated. After September 30, 1906 both Canadians and non-Canadians are included on these lists.
