Arrival in the UK 1968
« on: Tuesday 14 October 14 07:41 BST (UK) »
Are there any records online covering arrivals into the UK in the year 1968? None of the websites I've looked at are searchable beyond about 1960

A cousin of mine was brought to the UK as a 2-yr-old in 1968 but doesn't know the exact date, and both parents are no longer around to ask...

By 1968 it's likely of course that she came here by plane.
Hardly any of those records exist,only the shipping indexes do.

Unusually, it was actually a ship - we know the name ("Northern Star") & the port of arrival was Southampton

In that case you can probably just google to find out when it's sailings were into Southampton in 1968.
