An excellent resource - with full census and passenger list references etc, is on http://www.mawer.clara.net/intro.html (http://www.mawer.clara.net/intro.html) compiled by Brian Mawer.
A database of some of those involved in the sugar refining industry, mainly in the UK, 16-20C. Additional information may be available from the original sources, or from the compiler, who will also be pleased to receive further contributions to the database.
I found this site invaluable in providing information about my 19thC ancestors who were immigrants from Germany to the sugar refineries in London's east end.
Good hunting!

Sugar Refiners & Sugarbakers can now be found at www.sugarbakers.co.uk
