Arrival and departure notices for Bombay in 1880

16 Sep | News,

Arrival and departure notices for Bombay in 1880 have been extracted from the Times of India newspapers and uploaded to the FIBIS database website. This is the first batch of data from a new project being worked on by the team of volunteers who have spent the last few years extracting births, marriages and deaths from the Times of India newspapers and promises to be an extremely useful set of data for those hunting for their ancestor’s arrival or departure from India. This batch contains  2254 arrivals and 4004 departures.
