Hi Ann I asked this question a while ago about ireland to scotland. There are no passenger lists they where free to come and ago as they pleased. I beleive it was the same for England. Regards kate

Before 1921 the whole of Ireland was part of the UK, so they didn't need to emigrate. I doubt therefore that there would have been passenger lists for people making the crossing. Richard

Thanks ,Richard. Now I know why I couldn't find any lists! I feel so stupid. How could I be so daft, it's common sense when I think about it! Regards Ann

Have just noticed your reply Catriona (have got 2 year old grandaughter here, so am a bit distracted!) I am glad I am not the only one to ask. The answer is simple when you think about it isn't it. It's a shame because if there were lists it would answer a lot of questions for me/ + no doubt you too. Good searching Regards Ann
