(Extracted from the Immigration Report of 1843)
The column "By whom sent; Master" gives general comments and information about assistance which was given to some of the passengers on that vessel. If the Master of the vessel is known, his name will also be given. Some passengers were assisted to emigrate by the Poor Law Commissioners. Others were assisted by Parish funds while still others, were assisted by their landlord.
There were 279 vessels carrying passengers and of those, 132 came under the Passengers Act. When you see " in front of a date it means the agent listed the vessel in his weekly report and all we know it that it arrived "week ending" that date.
This list has been cross-matched with another list published in the British Parliamentary Papers of voyages from 1842-44.
