James Dobbins
« on: Tuesday 08 May 12 12:22 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone can help with the immigration of James Dobbins? He was born in Jamaica and came to the UK before 1910.  I understand that he landed in Liverpool and was certainly in Scotland by 1910.

With thanks for any information.

Regards
Lesley

Ancestry has some of the incoming passenger lists; if you're not a subscriber some libraries and archives have access. You may find the National Archives guide for immigration of interest,as it lists various sources:
