Julia Scahill - SS Westernland - Passenger - Arriving At - Port Of Philadelphia

This is an extract from the US National Archives.

...Until January 1, 1820, the U.S. Federal Government did not require require captains or masters of vessels to present a passenger list to U.S. officials. Thus, as a general rule, NARA does not have passenger lists of vessels arriving before January 1, 1820. There are, however, two exceptions to this general rule:

...Rolls 1-29 of M425, Passenger Lists of Vessels Arriving at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1800-1882(108 rolls), which is indexed by M360, Index to Passenger Lists of Vessels Arriving at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1800-1906(151 rolls). Note, however, that M425 undoubtedly does not include everyone arriving at Philadelphia during 1800-1819...
