So, You could try looking at Crew Lists?

As far as I know just England for me. Although I have an ancestor who's place of birth is listed as Nova Scotia - but I have no idea how to follow that up.

If you need help with Nova Scotia just post on Canada board. Lots of us from N.S. or know where to find information.
