"Millions of Germans and Irish came to America during the Age of Immigration, 1820-1924, and untold numbers came during British immigration waves dating back to the mid-1600s, " said Brad Steuart, president of Heritage Quest. "Many family historians are curious about what conditions led to their ancestors' exodus, their experiences at America's ports of entry, and how they settled into their new homeland. The World Immigration Series CDs are rich and vivid collections that paint a picture of life during these amazing periods of transition for our ancestors."

Each country profiled in the World Immigration Series is divided into the following categories:

• History: Sections such as Immigration, Settling America, Cultural Origins and Genealogy give a detailed history of the social, economic and political landscape for immigrants during the 19th and 20th centuries.
• Articles: Each CD contains dozens of articles from Heritage Quest magazine, focused on the historical events that led up to immigration, and how to find genealogy records relating to German, Irish and British lineage in the U.S. and abroad.
• Ports: Information about the entrance points that immigrants traveled through and the trials and tribulations they endured to become American citizens.
• View: Hundreds of images including detailed maps, and period photos of towns, historic events and landmarks. Also includes additional genealogy resources, such as Web links for searching the U.S. Census records and other important databases.
• Census: U.S. Census records from 1870, sorted by country of origin. Searchable by name, age, sex, race, birthplace, locality, and country.
