FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) has added two new databases that may assist those with ancestors who came to Scotland and Ireland, as well as the wider UK.
Britain and Ireland, Incoming Passenger Lists 1878-1960
https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/britain-and-ireland-incoming-passenger-lists-1878-1960
These records were digitised from the original series held at The
National Archives as BT 26, Board of Trade: Commercial and Statistical
Department and successor: Inwards Passenger Lists.
Britain & Ireland Naturalisations
https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/britain-and-ireland-naturalisations-1603-1700
The blurb notes that this second dataset will cover the years 1844-1990, with 413,558 new records, although the dataset actually linked to still states the coverage to be 1603-1700, with no sign of the records from 1844-1990 - perhaps someone has still to press a button somewhere!
