    Hi,

     

    Thank you for your message.

     

    Most passenger records for Irish immigrants are found at the place of destination. Any records that are in Ireland would be in the Irish National Archives. Here is their web address:

    For immigration records in the US you should check the US National Archives, here is the link to their website:

    Here is a link to a website that gives you good information and tips for searching for passenger records in Massachusetts:

    From 1831-1921, the Boston Pilot newspaper printed a ?Missing Friends? column with advertisements from people looking for ?lost? friends and relatives who had emigrated from Ireland to the United States. These have been collected as a searchable online database, which contains a text record for each ad that appeared in the Pilot. http://infowanted.bc.edu/

     

    I hope that this is helpful.

     

    Kind regards,
