For those researchers who are interested in the history of a specific parish, Leigh Lawson has compiled lists of assisted emigrants sorted by their parish of origin.

This list is of parishes which sent emigrants on ships chartered by the Petworth Emigration Committee 1832 – 1837 and on other commercial ships after 1837.

Further information can be found in Part Two of Assisting Emigration To Upper Canada: The Petworth Project, 1832-1837 by Wendy Cameron and Mary MacDougall Maude McGill-Queen’s University Press 2000.
