Liz The best records are here in Oz. There are indexes available and if a convict so much the better as you will get more information. What is the time period? The other item to know is the port of Arrival as this will reduce your search. If you have checked these indexes then it is most likely at the age of 10 it maybe family plus children. I have not found any useful UK based records apart from those made available from Ireland Regards Gerry "Liz (by way of TCF )" wrote: > > Hi All , > Can some kind person tell me where I can find shipping lists coming to > Aus from Scotland ( Kincardine O'Neil area ). > I want both convict ships and Immagration ships, I am trying to find > how an ancester arrived age abt 10 yrs. > > Regards > Liz > Bowral NSW > > reasearching > BOLTON Robert & Ann Smith > GODSON William & Ellen - George & Margery > GORDON Caroline A & Nelson John Proctor > GORDON George & Mary Emmeline Vane > GORDON Cyril & Ida May Reynolds > GORDON George & Mary Heffernan & Janey Smith > KEARINES Ivanhoe S & Emma L.Godson > KEARINES Edward & Elizabeth Clayton > GODSON William & Ann Parker > WATTS John & Elizabeth Norman > LARGE Elizabeth M. > RATHBONE Mary Ann > REYNOLDS Ida May > REYNOLDS Daniel > VANE ( Waine ) Stephen & Elizabeth Mandeville > VANE John & Jane Parker > > ============================== > Visit Ancestry.com for a FREE 14-Day Trial and enjoy access to the #1 > Source for Family History Online.
