There are more than 850,000 images, arranged alphabetically by name, for individuals entering the United States through the Port of Detroit, 1906-1954. Includes a few records of persons entering at Port Huron, Sault St. Marie, and other Michigan ports.
Although these are not indexed if you know your alphabet you can soon hone in on a name of interest. Generally includes the following information:
Name
Birth place
Age
Gender
Occupation
Nationality
Last permanent residence
Destination
Name and address of relative or friend
Port and date of entry
Name of ship
I've been reminded that often links to individual FamilySearch databases don't work. You're best to go to https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/list and scroll down to Michigan entries.
