De schepen starten vaak in Hamburg, gingen vandaar naar het eiland Texel en dan naar de haven Amsterdam, daarvandaan naar Liverpool in Engeland. Dan begon de reis over de Oceaan naar New York. De scheepsbeambte liet de papieren zien en de paspoorten. Aangetekend werd simpel de namen, terwijl de ambtenaar in de USA niet zijn directe best deed om alles correct over te schrijven dan wel de juiste afkomst neer te zetten. Heel snel werden de namen over geschreven, met een schuin oog. Dan werd later de pagina afgemaakt met de melding haven van afkomst. Dat kon Hamburg zijn , maar ook Amsterdam of Liverpool, afhankelijk wat hem is bijgebleven

en dan met de muis over via de balk bovenin naar de page buitenland en dan naar
Duitsland. Aldaar even zoeken naar migraties naar o.a. Amerika.
