The passenger manifest for the SS Nevada documents the arrival of 13-year-old Annie Moore, of County Cork, Ireland, the first immigrant to be processed through Ellis Island.

Her entry is seen on the second line of this passenger arrival record. Annie Moore and her two younger brothers were traveling to meet their parents who had previously emigrated to New York.

The manifest also includes information concerning age, occupation, country of citizenship, intended destination, ability to read and write, location of compartment on ship, luggage, and nature of the journey.
This primary source comes from the Records of the U.S. Customs Service.

The National Archives

DocsTeach is a product of the National Archives education division. Our mission is to engage, educate, and inspire all learners to discover and explore the records of the American people preserved by the National Archives.

The National Archives and Records Administration is the nation's record keeper. We save documents and other materials created in the course of business conducted by the U.S. Federal government that are judged to have continuing value. We hold in trust for the public the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights — but also the records of ordinary citizens — at our locations around the country.
