Finding A Passenger List

[demari18]

I have been having difficulty tracking information concerning my husband's grandfather Luigi Lorenzo. Recently I received information from Homeland Security indicated that he entered the US through New York on April 27th 1892. I have been trying to see the actual manifest and have been unable to find it. Ellis Island was opened in January of 1892 but he does not show up on their site. Perhaps someone at Italiangenealogy can direct me as to how I can search for him on a passenger list. I have many different birth dates for him but the date from Homeland Security indicates either April 20, 1871 or April 20, 1872. Thank you for any help in this matter. Family oral history related that he was born in Teano but many friends at this site as well as my own searching on Ancestry have not turned up a birth record for him as of yet. Thank you again.

I came across your post and found it very interesting. I have been looking for my Uncle Melchiorre Cicchirillo, entry into the US. We were told that he entered either in 1901 or 1902. I have his birth date, but cannot find the actual manifest.

My question could you please provide me how to contact Homeland Security?

Thank you very much,
Janet
