Donna My ancestors went in 1885 and I was lucky enough for someone in Oz to help. Have you tried Cyndislist(.)com That seems to have loads of things on there, including shipping lists. Perhaps if you do anothere note on this board asking for help from Australia in the title,someone may offer there help. Just one more thing have you tried Australia house in London. Sure they will have some good advice. Hope your lucky. Lynda
