Is there anywhere to look for Irish immigration records to Scotland around 1850?

Gordon, there isn't any,,crossing from Ireland to Scotland was just a boat/ship trip......no formal passage was needed.they travelled in their thousands back and forth.

The same applies to movement between Ireland, England and Wales, and Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales.
