Southampton Incoming Passenger Lists

[al13fe26]

Hello,

My family resides in America but nearly everybody at some time passed through the port of Southampton from various points in Europe.  Ancestry.com has incoming manifests for non-European ports but how does one obtain the incoming manifests for those who sailed from mainland Europe (Bremen, Hamburg, Naples, Messina, Cherbourg, etc) to Southampton (or the other UK ports)?  Thank you!

Hi

This is the information on the National Archives site:

UK passenger lists do not record travel within Europe unless a ship called at more than one European port before travelling further afield.

Thank you.  Is there any source that shows who emigrated to London?  I had a family live there for about five years before coming to America.

I found my great grandfather on here, you might be lucky if they came from Germany.

I'm not German but many of my ancestors passed through German ports so I'll check it out.  Thanks.
