Arriving in San Francisco by ship

Post by Cathe »

My grandfather arrived in S.F. via ship in 1894.
Is anyone aware of where I can find documentation of arrivals to California?
I know a lot of records were destroyed in the 1906 earthquake, which may be the case in this situation.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
