Emigrants
at emigrants.net.au
In July we announced the major revamp of our web site, Online
names designed to assist family historians make links with
others with similar surname research interests. Now we can announce
that the companion web site, formerly part of Online names, but
now a completely separate entity, Emigrants
is now fully operational.
Emigrants is
designed to allow family historians to make contact with others
with a shared interested in emigrant passenger lists. Like Online
names it is a searchable database compiled from public
submissions. It has been available since 1997. The upgraded site
has been available since July and the many new features now available
are attracting increased traffic to the site.
The concept of listing surnames of emigrants or emigrant vessels
on this site is based on the basic reality in family history that
the information you seek is probably already known to someone else.
Your problem is finding that person and this site is designed as
an aid to that search.
The site has two types of postings:
1. Seeking: this is a list of persons seeking emigrant
passenger records for their ancestors. This is primarily a list
of surnames many with the name of the emigrant vessel.
2. Holding: this is a list of people holding passenger records that
they are prepared to share with others OR they may know of a web
site with passenger records. This is a listing of the names of emigrant
vessels. Many of these people have undertaken research and have
located a passenger list for their own family and of course such
a list names many other emigrants.
By publishing all your emigrant family surnames and/or their emigrant
vessels on this site you may just link up with a fellow researcher
with the same interests.
The site previously covered Australia and New Zealand. The new site
accommodates postings of emigrants and vessels travelling to any country.
Persons wanting to add a country to the list can simply do so!
The site is now instantaneous with new postings going online immediately
rather than waiting a week for a moderator to check.
A guideline page outlines information on providing help to locate
those ancestors who emigrated, and some notes on sailing ship dimensions.
It also covers migration information from countries accepting emigrants
as well as the countries generating migration of their people. At
the time of writing the following countries are featured:
• Australia – arrivals
• Germanic states – departures
• Italy – departures
• North America – arrivals
• Scotland – departures
• United States – arrivals
Like the guideline pages at Online
names these pages are continually being added to with new
information.
We hope you and your associates will soon avail yourself of the
service because the success of such a web site improves with the
number of postings. The more postings, the more likely visitors
will get a positive result.
[Ed: The above sites were closed in 2015 after repeated cyber attacks and the information pages transfered to the Adelaide Proformat site.]
Missing census records in England
and Wales
Have you ever wondered why you cannot find your ancestors in a 19th
century census return for England and Wales? Perhaps the following
lists may explain.
Most of the information from the 1911 census for England, Wales,
the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man has been released. However
the most sensitive data will be unavailable until January 2012.
There are missing pages in all censuses but 1861 has suffered most,
with entire pieces missing. You can confirm most missing pieces
in The National Archives Catalogue by searching on keyword 'missing'
and series code as follows:
1841—HO
107; 1851—HO 107; 1861—RG 9; 1871—RG 10;
1881—RG 11; 1891—RG 12: 1901—RG 13, HO 14—1911
