I am wanting to add a Migration Category from Newfound Land when it was still a British Colony (pre 1949) wondering what I would put for the from country and from entity
I've been using the current structure of:
[[Category:Canada, Immigrants]]
[[Category: Newfoundland Immigrants]]
[[Category:Canada, Emigrants]]
[[Category: Newfoundland Emigrants]]
but using the four time period divisions:
* Newfoundland Colony 1610-1907
* Dominion of Newfoundland 1907-1949
* Newfoundland (province) 1949-2001
* Newfoundland and Labrador (province) 2001-Present
this expands to (as needed):
[[Category: Newfoundland Colony, Immigrants]]
[[Category: Newfoundland Colony, Immigrants from England]]
[[Category:Migrants from Dorset to Newfoundland Colony]]
...
[[Category: Newfoundland Colony, Immigrants from Ireland]]
[[Category:Migrants from County Waterford to Newfoundland Colony]]
...
...
[[Category: Newfoundland Colony, Emigrants]]
[[Category: Newfoundland Colony, Emigrants to United States]]
[[Category: Migrants from Newfoundland Colony to Maine]]
