Remarks on the Ship Columbia's Voyage from Canton
According to the excellent Asian North American Timeline Project posted on one of UBC's websites, the first were three seamen, Ashing, Achun and Aceun, who on August 9, 1785 were stranded in Baltimore by John O'Donnell, the captain of the ship Pallas. The Maryland Journal (Baltimore, August 12, 1785) reported that, 32 Asian Indian sailors ("Lascars") were stranded by the same ship. As in the case of John Meares' employees, the "Ah" prefix to the Chinese seamen's names shows that all were Cantonese. What happened to them afterward is not known.
There probably were other Chinese who came even earlier as crew members of ships trading between America and Asia, but no records of their presence have as yet come to light. There must also have been Chinese among the many "Filipinos" who served as crew on board the Manila Galleons that sailed each year between Mexico and the Philippines from the late 16th century onward. Again, however, no identifiably Chinese names have survived.
1789 Chow Died in Boston.

太平洋铁路通车前,美国东岸的华人多是船上工人,茶叶商人或传教士带来的,还有来自加勒比海的华人。
在波士顿城区的一所公墓中存有一块这样的碑文:“安葬此地的是19岁的中国少年阿周,他于1798年9月11日在波士顿号船上从桅杆堕下身亡。他的雇主约翰波立此碑以志纪念。”这是现在能追溯到的中国人在波士顿最早的足迹,也是唯一的线索。

平安巷是最早唐人街。https://boston.curbed.com/maps/boston-immigrants-map/ping-on-alley
1870年North Adams Sampson Shoe Factory 雇佣了第一批华人75名。大约两年后其中有人来到波士顿平安巷搭帐篷居住。1872年波士顿发生了一场火灾,也许华工找到了工作。也有(http://dajia.qq.com/blog/321717050272199.html)说波士顿电话公司雇佣了华工。
波士顿唐人街历史基本包括在新英格兰华人历史协会的出版物中。
