1875 passengers to Aust ?

[diinsussex]

Where does one find lists of Passengers,leaving England and traveling to Australia  around 1875 as a paying passenger, (where he settled).Sailed to Aus ,May 1875 on the "Nubia" disembarked in Melbourne. I have been told these details, but would like to see the lists.

His father, I think visited him ,before 1881 and returned to Eng. I do not have any details of ship or when this may have occurred.
Ancestry seems to be very limited and mainly "passengers coming in to England"

Hope some one can help.

Hi diinsussex 

If you go here:
http://proarchives.imagineering.com.au/index_search.asp?searchid=23
and put in the name of the ship, and the year, then hit "search", you will get a passenger list for various journeys of the Nubia arriving 1875 into Melbourne, and hopefully your passenger will be listed there.

Hopefully that should answer your question 

Cheers

Thanks Prue, very helpful. Found him on the Nubia. Have not managed to find his DAD. Guess more tricky ,when I have not got a starting point.
The site was good with a few other sites as well ,which will be handy

Much appreciated,
Diinsussex----ex aussie,though visiting after Christmas,looking forward to that!
