English Assisted Immigrants - 1870's (A-L)
The following names are indexed from "The Farthest Promised Land" by
Professor Rollo Arnold of Victoria University, Wellington.
This is a study of the English villagers who were a major element in the
assisted immigration of the 1870s. Chapter 2 of this book is an excellent
summary of the depressed condition of English agricultural workers by 1870.
Indexed by Mike FOSTER, Wellington, 1993. I have my own copy of the book
and can supply additional information on many of the people who are
mentioned. To maximise info, I have used abbreviations such as :
NALU=National Agricultural Labourers Union
Cptr=carpenter
AL=ag'l labourer
-u-W -under-Wychwood
w+3ch wife & 3 children
