The rules, laws and standards of International Travel in the 19th century were vastly different to how International Travel is handled in the 21st or 20th century. Prior to 1910; many immigrants, traders and a variety of people from a multitude of social classes and standings took a variety of routes from Europe to Canada because no official or transferable record was taken in Canada.
Travelers and traders could then travel to the United States undocumented to trade and/or settle. Some of these shipping routes were bootlegged by captains and crew (much like how a quarterback calls an audible to change a play on the field) and others were common routes many ships followed.
Navigation lacked modern technology, so based on current, wind and clouds blocking the stars; identical routes were virtuously impossible to syndicate. There were general plans for voyages and compasses to ensure a basic itinerary but to specifically pinpoint the coordinates of a route would lack accuracy.
