I don't have access in Ancestry's World Heritage for Western Australia, Australia, Crew and Passenger Lists, 1852-1930.

There are 5 Gertrude Allens from England to Albany. She was my great grandmother.

Could you please look up her with her husband, George and 3 children (inlcuding Eileen, my late grandmother) with Mary Rutherford? I want to know what Gertrude's age, place of birth, occupation, etc.

Thanks, Steven.

Hi Choccy, thanks for your help.

Yes, that's correct what you found Gertrude's family in 1924 passenger list. Thanks for it. I was hoping if it would show where Gertrude was born.

Cheers, Steven.

Stephen most of this information is on your other thread. I you did not tell me you had not got the details of her voyage or i would have added it.
Now Choccy has been wasting her time looking what was already found.

It is a very complicated family and I hope to get to the archives soon.

Hi Choccy, thanks again for Gertrude's passenger details. Don't worry about more details excluding a passenger list. Sorry about that. LK already helped me. She added this website address. She is a clever and very helpful.

Hi LK, I did not know that Ancestry has Western Australia, Australia, Crew and Passenger Lists, 1852-1930. I just found about it yesterday.

I only asked for a passenger list of Gertrude's passenger list, that's all. However, a lovely Choccy was helping that I did not ask for more.

Really, you will go to the archives. What will you look for? Thanks, again.
