Over 25 million Italians have emigrated between 1861 and 1960 with a migration boom between 1871 and 1915 when over 13,5 million emigrants left the country for European and overseas destinations.
Trying to find out if there are ships passenger lists kept in Italy relating to ships passengers going to England (1878-1887) and are they available on line?.
