Not sure of dates but lots of the shipping records are on line too at PRO Vic, search records... it can be a bit difficult to find I have to admit.

Hope this helps .........

An 1840 assisted passage may also be listed on the NSW state records - a key name search http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/archives/keyname_search_2187.asp will show them up from 1839-1851 - gives ship and reel references etc - something a lot of the libraries then have available on microfilm, some with the ability to save the actual documents to a USB or email them.

All the records into victoria are on line at Prov. You need to remember however that if the ship called into another state on the way the records will be there and not in Victoria even if the person actually got off in vic. If you have an idea of the date you can check the newspaper of the times. carmel
