Passenger Ship Arrivals for the Ports of New Orleans, LA and Galveston, TX - 1847

Alphabetical Index of Passenger Ship Arrivals at New Orleans and Galveston for the year 1847. Ships Rigging and Nationality included, if known. Some ships did have more than one New Orleans voyage during the year, but some ships also had the same name as others, but were different vessels even if they sailed from the same ports. The detailed information should show the difference. This Index was generously shared with TheShipsList by Mr. W.M. Von Maszewski.
Abbreviations used :- NAMP: National Archives Microfilm Publication | Registre Veritas: The "Continental equivalent to Lloyd’s Register of Shipping", which contains European, British and some American vessels.
