British Settlers in Natal, 1824-1857
This new volume of British Settlers in Natal is part of a massive research project to identify immigrants who came to Natal from Britain before 1858, and to collect biographical material on them and their children. The year 2000 was the year chosen to commemorate the advent of the largest body of settlers, those despatched by J.C. Byrne & Co. in the years 1849-1851. Although Spencer's work focuses on British immigrants who came to settle in Natal, its interest and usefulness are not confined to this region. Some of the new Natalians, and many of the next generation, moved all over South Africa, and indeed all over the world. Spencer's work has already proved to be indispensable to anyone doing research into Natal history, and libraries will welcome this new volume. This seventh volume covers Gadney to Guy.
Natal Settler-agent
This biography of James Moreland (1809-1864)--and his activities as the colonization agent in South Africa for the Byrne emigration scheme of 1849/1851--serves also as a biography of the Irish promoter Joseph Charles Byrne. Included is a list of Byrne's ships, their passenger lists, lists of Byrne agents in England, Wales and Scotland, and an alphabetical list of all Byrne settlers (most of whom were English).
