South Australia's British farm apprentices 1913-14

About me

Location	Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
Introduction	My great-grandfather, Lewis Grant, emigrated to South Australia as a farm apprentice in 1914. I researched the youth migration scheme for my History Honours thesis in 2007. I was intending to continue my research for a PhD but am now pursuing it in my spare time instead! Ideally I would like to create a website about the scheme, but in the meanwhile I am keeping this blog. The format is not ideal but please browse the blog archive for my earlier postings.
