Trama

Immigration was as controversial in the nineteenth century as it is today. His influence can be read in the naming of the town Marshall, outside Geelong, Victoria, and in the lives of the descendants of the thousands of people he assisted to migrate to the British colonies of New Zealand, Canada and North America, Cape Town and most importantly, Australia.Marshall's work also impacts the world today through Lloyd's Register of Shipping.
