Castle Garden

Is there a way to search Castle Garden manifests just by name of town and date of arrival? My goal is to find out how early immigrants from Celenza arrived in the US. My Ellis Island search takes me back to 1892. I have ancestry, so if there is a way to do it through Steve Morse or Ancestry, I'd love to know!

With Castle Garden browser you can search by country and year of arrival, but I don't see a selection that allows to search by town.

Edit to change spelling.

I'm pretty sure there is a way to do it with Steve Morris' gold form. I am at work (my bookmarks are in my computer at home) so if no one can send you a link before tonight, I will.

Here is the link for Castle Garden (stevermorse.org)......the free site. Some of the others are pay sites.

Hmmm...it seems like Castle Garden's site doesn't yet have the town names in its database, but I may search it for particular names of some early settler's from Celenza.
