Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Emigration in 1904
« on: Tuesday 14 October 14 15:52 BST (UK) »
I am researching emigration from Liverpool in 1904. Lots of ships left for New York, but none give records of steerage passengers.
I believe that migrants from Eastern Europe and Scandinavia came to Hull and from there by train to Liverpool where they were put in boarding houses until they got a passage.
I remember my grandmother telling me how her mother used to take her down to the Pier Head where she saw 'pens' full if people talking in foreign languages. She said the noise was horrendous!
Any help us appreciated.
Thank you.
