References for North American Immigrations of Grimshaws
A broad survey of sources of readily available (published) immigration records was conducted for Grimshaw immigrants into the U.S. One primary source (Filby, which is actually an index that led to 30-plus other references) and three secondary sources ( Bentley, Filby (multiple volumes), Glazier and Filby, and Glazier and Tepper) were found and are described on this website. Each source is described below, along with a description of a number of commonly-used sources that were found to contain no Grimshaw entries.

An overview of Grimshaw immigration patterns, and individual Grimshaw immigrants, are given on a companion webpage. A tabulation of Grimshaw immigration records is also included on another webpage.
Libraries Consulted
Many sources were consulted; most of the references were available at the Genealogy Division of the Texas State Library (referred to below as Texas Genealogy Library, or “TGL”) in Austin, Texas. Several other libraries were important sources of references not available at TGL – the Pennsylvania Room of the Carnegie Library (“PCL”), Pittsburgh, PA; the Sutro Library (“Sutro”), in San Francisco CA; the LDS Family History Library in Salt Lake City, UT; and the Detroit Public Library in Detroit, MI.
Variants of the Grimshaw Name
There are many variations in the spelling of the Grimshaw name. As those of us who bear the name know all too well, people often have difficulty in “hearing” the name when it is pronounced to them for the first time. Even though the name is quite “phonetic,” it nearly always must be spelled out when it is being transcribed by someone who hasnt heard it before. Its almost as though they “cant believe their ears” when hearing the name for the first time!
Certainly those taking down the name for immigration, census-taking and related reasons were no exception, so the “net was cast widely” in this survey of immigrant records for Grimshaws. The strategy that evolved in looking through alphabetic indexes was to start with the “Greens” and continue to the end of the “Gri-” listings (often with the name “Grizzle”). This strategy captures nearly all of the variations that were “honest mistakes” by the transcriber; some of the more commonly encountered variants are as follows:
Greenshaw
|
Grimsha
|
Grinshaw
|
Grishaw
|
Grenshaw
|
Grimshew
|
Grinsha
| |
Grensha
|
Grimshow
|
Grisha
|
Variants, such as shortening to Grim, at the initiative of the immigrant (or by the transcriber), were not captured. Grim is a very common German surname, and many Grims from Germany immigrated to the U.S. and Canada. Many variants are “borderline” – Grishaw, for example, could be either of two mistakes – leaving out the “m” in Grimshaw, or substituting a “w” for its upside-down counterpart “m” in Grisham. Greenhaw or Greenhow are examples of names that were not included because they have their own origin and identity. No doubt some names that might, or ought, to have been included were inadvertently omitted.
Filby, 1981-2000
Perhaps the single most significant readily available, published source of immigrant information for the U.S. is referred to as “Filby” (or “PILI”), which was first published in 1981 and annual supplements have been published since through 2000. Filby is best considered as a “secondary” source in that it is an index of other published sources containing lists of immigrants. The approach used in Filby, both in the original work and in the supplements, is to select a set of sources containing immigrant information for review, provide a complete citation, and assign a unique number to each. The list of citations is then followed by a comprehensive alphabetical index of names of all immigrants included in all the citations. The index includes the name, the state, sometimes the age, the year, the unique reference number, and the page in the citation where the immigrant can be found. The researcher can then locate the cited reference and turn to the indicated page to access the information included.
A total of 52 indicated Grimshaw immigrants was found in the original volume and annual supplements of Filby; they are summarized below. Some of the citations appear to reference the same individual, so the number of “unique” entries appears to be about 36.

Thirty-one references were included in the Filby list. As many of these references as possible were located, and copies were made of the “front matter” (title page, copyright page and selected additional pages) and the pages containing the Grimshaw immigrants name(s).
If you are interested in obtaining a copy of a reference, please e-mail me at thomas.w@grimshaw.com. All but three of the Filby-cited references have been located and copies made.
Glazier, Ira A., ed., and Michael Tepper, 1983-1986, The Famine Immigrants – Lists of Irish Immigrants Arriving at the Port of New York
Glazier and Tepper focused specifically on arrivals at the Port of New York and on the period of the Irish famine from 1846 to 1851. The work is published in seven volumes covering successive intervals during the period January 1846 to December 1851. Each volume contains documentation, in chronological order, of ships that arrived at the port, and for each ship a list of passengers is included. The volumes are carefully indexed by surname and page number with the ships list of immigrants for the name.
All of the volumes except Volume 1 were found to have Grimshaw immigrants listed; the entries are summarized in Table 4. A total of 15 Grimshaws is included on the list; only one appears to overlap with the citations in Filby. Copies of the front matter, pages with Grimshaw entries, and index pages with Grimshaw entries are included in Part B of this report.

Glazier, Ira A., ed., and P. William Filby, 1988-1990, Germans to America – Lists of Passengers Arriving at U.S. Ports, 1850-1863
Judging from the titles of the early volumes of this series, the original period that was intended to be included in the scope of the work was 1850 to 1855, which would have ended with Volume 9. However, the series has continued to be published and extends through July 1893 (volume 64, published 2000). The first 31 volumes (through September 1875) have been surveyed for this report. Grimshaw entries were found only in Volumes 2 and 4.
The first Grimshaw entry was Henry, referenced in Volume 2 as arriving in New Orleans from London on May 21, 1852 on the ship “John Currier.”
The second was James Grimshaw, in Volume 4, who arrived in New York from London on September 30, 1852 on the ship “Patrick Henry.”

This relatively recent work includes information on passengers who arrived at the Port of New York between 1820 and 1829. It includes entries for the following eight Grimshaw immigrants:

Sources Checked but Found to Have No Grimshaw Entries
Experienced family history researchers, after reading the references reviewed as described above, may wonder if common references with which they are familiar, but which are not cited, are not cited because they were reviewed and found to contain no Grimshaw entries or because they were not reviewed at all. To partially address this question, the following listed references were reviewed but found to contain no Grimshaw entries.
- Tepper and Bentley, 1982
- Whitmore, 1973
- Rasmussen, 1965
- Rasmussen, 1966
- Rasmussen, 1967

- Tepper, 1980, v. I

To be sure, there is limited value in seeking to “prove a negative,” but, by the same token, it may be useful to some researchers to know the major data sources in which Grimshaws apparently did not leave any record.
References Cited
As noted, for this webpage four commonly used sources of information on immigrants to the U.S. were found to have Grimshaw entries — Bentley, Filby (multiple volumes), Glazier and Filby, and Glazier and Tepper (multiple volumes). Filby, in turn indexes many other references. These Filby references, as well as the Bentley, Glazier and Filby, and Glazier and Tepper references, are shown below in alphabetical order. The references surveyed but found to have no Grimshaw entries are also shown.
