I am researching assisted emigration from Scottish ports to NSW between 1837 and 1841 for a university project. In this period both a 'bounty' scheme and a 'government chartered' assistance scheme operated . I am seeking information from any researchers who have details of any of the emigrants on the 33 vessels shown below from Scottish ports in this period. I am particularly interested in any details on the emigrants' backgrounds in Scotland or their occupations and movements after arrival in NSW to see if there was any difference between the characteristics of the emigrants on the two schemes. I am happy to exchange any details, passenger lists etc with other researchers.
