For colonial immigration to the US (generally considered anything before the 1819 Immigration Act) there was no legal requirement to have a ship manifest/passenger list.

The best source to check is the mammoth Passenger and Immigrant List Index. Contains info on abt 5 million people from 17thC onwards.
