Many new immigrants passes over the Atlantic from Europe in the early 1900's and late 1800's. Steerage was a horrible way to travel, but it was also the cheapest. Most of the trips were 8-14 days. 8-14 days with no ventilation, 6-8 foot ceilings, hay for bedding, and in the best case senarios 1 toilet for every 47 people. These horrible conditions spread contagious diseases and sea-sickness ran ramped. Some have compared these steerage rides to the slaves rides with no chains. If your ancestors traveled in steerage be happy they made it, or you would't be alive.

Steerage on a boat refers to the part of the vessel that is used for steering, typically where the helm or steering wheel is located. It can also denote the area where passengers who paid the lowest fares traveled, particularly in the context of early 20th-century ocean liners. In a broader sense, steerage can indicate the means by which a ship is maneuvered and controlled during navigation.
