Family historians and genealogists prize the information that ship passenger lists have to offer. Although the information recorded on the lists was not made standard until the twentieth century, finding an ancestor or research target on a ship's passenger list still provides valuable knowledge about the ancestor. The information on these lists include age, who they traveled with, what ship they took if they traveled first-class or steerage, what port they sailed from and what port they landed at, and their occupation when they took the journey. All of this information was typically recorded along with extra information like their physical description. Most family historians think about ship records in terms of tracing their family's immigration history, but people have long traveled for a variety of reasons. Some researchers will find evidence of their ancestors boarding ships because they needed to travel for work, to go back to their country of origin to visit relatives, or just to travel for pleasure. Lists from all journeys haven't been archived, however, the ones that were saved are now easier than ever for genealogists and historians to access, thanks to many of them either being available online in their entirety or their information being transcribed into searchable online indexes.
