        This file lists the name of every German from Russia
        arriving by ship in North America that has been published by
        the Germans from Russia Heritage Society, 1008 E. Central
        Ave., Bismarck, ND 57501. This list is current through
        Volume 24, Issue 3, of the Heritage Review, published in
        September 1994, and contains 20,053 listings.

        This list is intended to be used with file named
        GRHSSHIP.TXT. To find the name of the ship on which a
        passenger arrived, first find the name of passenger on this
        list and note the ship reference number located immediately
        to the left of the passenger's name. Then consult the file
        GRHSSHIP.TXT to find the corresponding reference number. The
        listing at that number will give you the name of the ship,
        arrival date, arrival port, year of publication by GRHS,
        name of publication, volume, issue, and page. NOTE that the
        page number given is the first page on which names for that
        ship are published. In some cases a single passenger list
        spans more than one page.

In a few cases, GRHS published passenger names with incomplete identifying information.
Thus, the reader may occasionally find a series of question marks (?????) indicating a
missing name, place of origin, or destination. The compiler hopes to fill these lacunae
in the future and would be grateful to anyone who could provide such information.
