      Vroegere passagierslijsten waren enkele pagina manifesten en legde minimale informatie van passagiers vast. In de loop der tijd waren formulieren gestandaardiseerd en waren aanvullende vragen toegevoegd. Afhankelijk van het jaar bevat de opgenomen informatie van een passagier de naam, leeftijd, geslacht, beroep, bestemming en informatie betreft plaats van oorsprong, zoals land van oorsprong, burgerschap status, ras, nationaliteit, geboorteplaats of laatste woonplaats. Rond 1907 bevatte passagiersmanifesten 29 kolommen en waren deze twee pagina's breed met linker- en rechterkanten. Veel van de passagiersmanifesten bestonden uit twee pagina's. Een bekend probleem voor genealogen was dan ook het missen van het bestaan van de tweede pagina, nadat de eerste wel was gevonden. MyHeritage heeft dit probleem voor het eerst opgelost door beide pagina's in één afbeelding vast te leggen om er zeker van te zijn dat er geen belangrijke informatie wordt gemist.Twee vragen die waren inbegrepen in het manifest vanaf 1907 waren: 1) naam en adres van een nabije vriend of familielid in het land van oorsprong; en 2) Of iemand ging inwonen bij een familielid of vriend, en zo ja, welke vriend of familie en zijn volledige naam en adres. MyHeritage heeft de namen en relaties van personen waarnaar verwezen wordt in deze twee aanvullende vragen geïndexeerd, waardoor MyHeritage de enige plek is waar deze aanvullende namen zoekbaar zijn.Gegevens in deze collectie komen uit de National Archives (NARA) microfilm collectie M237 (Passenger Lists of Vessels Arriving at New York, New York, 1820-1897) en T715 (Passenger and Crew Lists of Vessels Arriving at New York, New York, 1897-1957).
