I had a link to a web site that gave a list of all the ports in the UK where people sailed from, some to USA other to Australia and Newzealand etc and I was able to find some manifests too.
I thought it was on one of Stephen P.Morse's sites but I've searched for hours and cant find it.
Please, anyone out there able to help
a very frustrated Emmy

Hi Em,

Don't know if this is it or not but it does have some good information

www.theshipslist.com/R...source.htm

If this isn't it, when you find the one you use, would you mind posting it?

Lets see if we can help find you some links, emmy...

www.angelfire.com/de/B...Intro.html
www.immigrantships.net/
khuish.tripod.com/ships.htm
resources.rootsweb.anc...ategory=26
www.cyndislist.com/ships.htm

Hopefully one of these links can help.

Many Thanks Elizabeth and Nuccia for those links. I'll go through them one by one unfortnately at this moment none of them 'rings a bell' - but that's not surprising because at this moment I'm beginning to believe that MY 'bell' has lost its 'clapper'

The annoying thing is probably if I hadnt sat and thought about it I would probably have found what I was looking for!!!
if I do find it I will certainly post it for you Elizabeth.

Many many thanks for your help
Emmy

No problem emmy. I would try the link for cyndi's list first.

Oh and I forgot..could you have been referring to the link for findmypast?


Good luck and keep up posted.

thanks Nuccia
The thing that keeps coming back to me is that it was linked to a 'Steven Morse' page I can remember it was when I was looking for something else that I scrolled way down to the bottom of a page I found the names of the Scottish / English Ports.
Will definately have a check through alo those links

Thought I'd post this link I found sime interesting reading here.

FOUND WHAT I HAD LOST
with a bit help from Steven Morse

It kept coming into my head that it was on one of his web pages that I had found the list of British Ports so I emailed him and got a very quick reply.

You go to White Form go down to 'PORT' choose Region:British Isles then choose country: Scotland England Ireland or Wales.
There is another 'box' that says 'port' and if you have chosen Scotland then the list of all the Scottish ports are shown.

Bit a big thanks for all those other links you posted for me

Forgot to say there is another web page somewhere that also gives other destinations apart from USA.

Thanks for posting and explaining how it works Em.
