Descriptive Lists of Immigrants arriving in Melbourne and Proceeding to Tasmania, with Details of Name, Marital State, Age, Children, Religion, Literacy, Native Place, Trade, Application 1 Jan 1867 – 10 Jan 1884

These two volumes list Bounty immigrants who arrived in Melbourne and then proceeded to Tasmania on a second ship. The information given is similar to that in other arrival lists (i.e. name, age, marital status etc.). In addition, the following details are listed, the name of ship from England to Melbourne and from Melbourne to Tasmania and the port and date of departure in England. Each entry is certified by the Immigration Agent at Hobart or Launceston. Arrangement is roughly chronological although as the lists were compiled in Hobart with Launceston entries added, there are some discrepancies. These records are part of the holdings of the Tasmanian Archives
