Hi all, I was delighted to see this released though I do have the info on cd. Pity being on a request list to be notified when these were released hasn't made a difference yet! :-) I am even happier to see that the Immigration lists are now available on line. I have just found details re my husband's grandmother's immigration... wonderful! http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/index/imm1884_1912.asp Indexes - Immigration 1884-1912 There are a number of series of records at Queensland State Archives that may assist you to locate immigration information about your ancestors. This index refers to assisted immigrant passenger lists that were created and used by the Immigration Department between 1884 and 1912. The index was compiled from details found in Item ID 18481 (IMM/119) to Item ID 18490 (IMM/128) which are Registers of Migrants Arriving on Immigrant Ships Entering Queensland (Series ID 13086). This index does not include all immigration records for that period. If you cannot find the required name here there are a number of other records to check in the Public Search Room <http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/public.asp> including: the card index to immigrants; indexes to nominated immigrants and their nominators; card index to land orders; and card index to ships. View the list of immigration indexes <http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/index/imm1884_1912.asp#immigrationindexes> available to download. More info on line...
