Region: Ayrshire

I am looking for evidence in Glasgow or Kilmarnock of perhaps a newspaper article or advertisement of an agent advertising for iron workers to come to Australia. Can any of your members recall seeing such an advert, or have they any suggestions?

James Ferguson (1818 to 1894) born in Wallacetown, Ayr and James Urie (1828 to 1890) born in Kilmarnock, were emigrants to Melbourne, Australia and made their fortunes there from manufacturing and installing stained glass windows.
