US Ports of Entry - their Immigration Records and Passenger Lists - A Genealogy Guide by Joe Beine
Below is a list of many United States sea ports and land border ports that have published immigration records (passenger arrival lists) 1820-1957, organized by state. Included are Canadian border crossing records, which are listed under each border state, with further information in a separate section near the end of this webpage. Mexican border crossing records are also listed here for California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The rest are for ship passenger arrival records (and a select few for airplane passenger lists). Some crew lists, a few passenger departure records, and some passenger arrivals after 1957, are also included. U.S. Territories are listed following the Wisconsin section below.

The St. Albans FAQ and the 'By Way of Canada' article are helpful for learning how to research these records.
