GG ARCHIVES (GJENVICK-GJONVIK ARCHIVES) AN AMAZING RESOURCE ON LINE FOR GENEALOGISTS and HISTORIANS
The Gjenvick-Gjønvik Archives, established online in January 2000 is AMAZING!
Quote, "GG Archives offers one of the largest collections of Social and Cultural historical documents from the 1800s through 1954 with concentrations in Steamship and Ocean Liner documents and photographs, Passenger Lists (Transatlantic European Voyages; Some Australian and South African), U.S. Navy Archives and additional materials covering World Wars I and II, the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and Immigration documents from Ellis Island, Castle Garden and other Immigration Stations. Learn how to use the Gjenvick-Gjønvik Archives to get the most out of your visit.
*** Spice up your family history project with pictures of the ship your ancestors came to the U.S. on but don't stop there, find a poster, menu, or ticket, that they may have used or one like it. Just remember that the use of pictures for personal use for free - a family publication that isn't being sold - but for profit one must research the image source and respect copyright.
