Does anyone know of a website which gives information about immigrants to Canada between 1900 to 1914 please?

Thanks Dawn for suggestion. Ellis Island obviously immigration point for the States. Wondered if there was a immigration point for Canada?

Anne, you can try the National Archives of Canada. http://www(.)archives(.)ca/08/08_e(.)html [remove the brackets around the dots] When the page comes up - click on genealogy on left hand side. Hopefully this will help in your search. Also don't discount the Ellis Island site. A lot of people came through Ellis Island and then travelled on to Canada. Penny

Hi Anne, You might like to try this site. http(:)//ngb(.)chebucto(.)org/ It`s quite interesting with info about passenger ship going to Canada. Not sure if it`s any help to you but it`s worth looking at. Best wishes Julie
