You can use Irish assisted immigrants to New South Wales, Australia, 1848-1870 (Reid index) when you are in the Library. |
This index was compiled using the Board's immigrant lists, 1848-1891 held at NSW State Archives & Records. Where the Board's lists were missing (this was the case for about 10 ships) the Agent's lists were used.
You will first need to search the Alphabetical index of surnames in order to search the Chronological sequence. This gives you further information about your Irish ancestor.
