NOTES ON SHIP NAMES

In the adjacent list and other lists in this guide, the names of some ships are duplicated for the same voyage. These are given when the pass number records for those ships are split over two microfilm reels. In such cases both reels may need to be requested to identify an emigrant on a particular ship or voyage.

Where a roman numeral follows the name of a ship, this indicates that the ship undertook multiple voyages with each number identifying a separate voyage. This may be important if the name of the ship on which an emigrant travelled is known but not the exact date.

Use this list if you know the name of the ship on which the emigrant arrived in Fiji.

Scroll down this page until you locate the ship. Adjacent information includes the date of arrival in Fiji of the ship and the pass number range of the passengers. The correct microfilm call number is also provided to assist you when you make your request via the catalogue record
