Immigration records in New Brunswick are a valuable resource for genealogists tracing ancestors who arrived in this historically significant province. As one of Canada's earliest European settlements, New Brunswick saw waves of immigration from the 18th century onward, including Loyalists fleeing the American Revolution, Irish famine refugees, and Scottish and French settlers. Key records, such as passenger lists, land petitions, and naturalization documents, provide insights into migrants’ origins, occupations, and settlement locations. The ports of Saint John and Miramichi were major entry points. Exploring these records helps researchers uncover family histories and understand the province’s rich immigration heritage.
