Passenger Lists
« on: Tuesday 22 August 17 00:29 BST (UK) »
Today  I was looking for free sites with Immigrant Passenger Lists to Canada, but was not successful . I am not a member of Ancestry.com and Scotlands People do not have this information.

Any help would be good

Thanks   Dooker

Hi Rosie,

Thanks for your reply re passenger lists.  I did try the Family Search as I use them all the time.
Something I read yesterday said that lists were not done until 1865.  I used the Canada Gov site and found something but not great.

However, based on your suggestion, about the library, and I had great doubt about it here. Today I went and low and behold they do have free Ancestry at my local so that is great .  I will do some research there for some of my missing links.

Thanks for the offer to look for my family on the lists, if I get stuck I will try Rootschat once more.  The site is great for helping  and successful with answers.

Have a great day, Dooker

You'll need to look at Canadian records for Passenger Lists?

The UK Board of Trade didn't keep many records before 1890 ::)
