Migration from the Russian Empire: June 1889-July 1890 by Ira A. Glazier PDF Summary

Book Description: These two volumes continue the work of documenting all 2.3 million immigrants from the Russian Empire who arrived in the United States between 1871 & 1910. Several nationalities or ethnic groups were represented in this migration-Poles, Byelorussians, Ukrainians, Jews, Finns, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, & Germans (the socalled Volga Germans). These ethnic Russians emigrated in far greater numbers than indigenous Russians, as reflected in the fact that of the 1.7 million Russian emigrants who arrived in the U.S. between 1899 & 1910, 43 percent were Jews, 27 percent Poles, 9 percent Lithuanians, 8 percent Finns, 5 percent Germans, & 4 percent indigenous Russians. The first four volumes of Migration from the Russian Empire covered the years 1875-1882, 1882-1886, 1886-1887, & 1888-1889 respectively, & identified by name & various other particulars the 200000 persons of Russian nationality who emigrated to the United States from Russian territory. The pace of emigration from the Russian Empire picked up dramatically after 1889, as illustrated by the 90000 emigrants identified in the present two volumes who arrived in the United States in the two years between June 1889 & June 1891. While this extraordinary migration has been documented as part of the phenomenon known as mass migration, there has never been-until now-an account, by name, of the individuals who participated in this historic movement of population from the Russian Empire. Extracted from the original ships' passenger lists held by the Temple-Balch Center for Immigration Research, the information furnished in these volumes consists of the passenger's name, his age, sex, occupation, country of origin, place of residence, & destination. In addition, each passenger list is headed by the name of the ship, the port of embarkation, the port of arrival, & the date of arrival. By the 1890s, information provided by the passengers would include their last place of residence in Europe & their precise destination in the U.S.
