Spanish migration to Dowlais
« on: Sunday 15 January 06 17:03 GMT (UK) »
I have found out lots about the arrival of Spanish workers coming from Bilbao to Dowlais from around 1907.  I believed they sailed from Bilbao to Cardiff (to work in the iron ore co.) however, I am struggling to find which ship they might have sailed over in.

Any ideas where to search, or what search terms to put in Google?
