I have found the entry for a 2nd cousin twice removed who made the decision to leave for Australia as a single woman in 1915. If only these records showed us why... it wasn't to follow a loved one, because she didn't marry until the December of 1915 - he wasn't on the boat either.

It's a fun site and I've put the beginnings of a tree up, which although not directly mine, is related, but you don't get much for free do you?! A name, a year, port of leaving, port of destination. Not even a ship name.


Liz, you may find the Oz National Archives MIgration Index useful. But you probably already knew that.

Cheers, Rowan
