nsw immigrant shipping

Post by trish1 » Sun Jun 01, 2008 8:42 am

Ancestry now has listings of NSW immigrants online - no images at the minute, but the PR says the databases will be released Wednesday, so I hope they are available then.

New South Wales, Australia, Assisted Immigrant Passenger Lists, 1828-1896 05/30/2008
New South Wales, Australia, Unassisted Immigrant Passenger Lists, 1826-1922 05/30/2008

The assisted indexes are already available at the state archives and some of the unassisted information is available elsewhere also
http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/archives/ ... es_945.asp
http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/

I have, however, found 2 of my immigrants on the new ancestry data base, that I had been unable to find elsewhere.

Thanks for letting us know, Trish. Ancestry does come in handy at times, doesn't it? :)

It they could only read before transcribing, it would be a big help :D

It seems there will be no images, which is disappointing. Shall have to wait for the "mariners" link to go further.
