Canada, Immigration Records, 1919-1924

Immigration records documenting ocean arrivals from 1919-1924 to Canada. During this time period required individual manifests, Immigration form 30A to be completed and submitted to the immigration officers at the ports of arrival instead of the large passenger sheets used previously. A form was required for each passenger including children with the exception of those continuing on to the United States. Each form usually contains name of ship, date of sailing, port and date of arrival, name, age, occupation, birthplace, race, citizenship, religion, previous residence in Canada, destination, nearest relative in the country from which the immigrant came. The original records are held at Library and Archives Canada, RG 76.
