Hi, while we are on the subject of people from Scotland coming to Australia, I'm hoping maybe someone can help me out. I'm looking for any info on the Palombo family or maybe just one person who came from Scotland, cannot find any reference of him or his family anywhere. His name was Joseph (either Michael or Dominic) he used both I think. He was born in 1906 at Inverness.Died in Forbes N.S.W. Hope skp can help me out here. Thank you Julia Ann Essex <ann.essex@gmail.com> wrote: I am doing research for a friend's novel, and need to find information about ships carrying assisted migrants from Glasgow (or England) to Melbourne. I am hoping someone may be able to share their knowledge of the boats that were used, and even the conditions on the voyage, based on family histories. Hope someone can help!
