Am looking for Constance Maud Perkins b 1901 Warwks.
Went out to Cape Town in 1925 with Wm H Perkins. Cannot find her return but she married in 1926 in Coventry.

Welcome to the boards Anne

Please read my reply from last year on previous page...this thread has not been used for 3 years, you would do better to start one of your own

Hi Julia
My grandfather Richard Roskrow Rogers born 1854, Gwennap. Cornwall.
He migrated to Chile in the late 1870s /early 1880s. When widowed he returned to Cornwall and is recorded in Redruth Cornwall in 1911.
Between then and his death in 1933 he travelled to and from Chile several times.

If you are able to supply any information from your records I would be extremely happy and grateful!
Anne

Oh thanks Jax dopey me.

Julia has not replied on this thread since 2010 so it does'nt look like she is doing look ups now

Also the title of this thread is UK incoming passenger lists 1878-1960

Hi Julia, This is probably like looking for a needle in a haystack. Bridget Sullivan born 1847 we have no idea where abouts in Ireland , left Ireland in the early 1860's and arrived in Port Chalmers or Dunedin Otago New Zealand around 1863 -1864 she may have been with a Mary Moran or another Sullivan. Many thanks.

Jacki - I'd refer you again to my post above yours. Seems like one post has been dleted in the interim.

Hello Jacki, it's been a couple of years since Julia last replied to a post on here.

Why not start a new thread of your own asking for help - just use the "Add Topic" button on the first page of the Find Ancestors board. Don't forget to give as much info as possible about him, like when and where he was born. Details of his family including spouse if married and children. His occupation would help and details of the last census you have him on.

There are quite a few of us have access to incoming and outgoing shipping records, plus worldwide records so someone should be able to help you.

Hi Julia,
I know you have said that there are very few European listings, however, could you look for a Gladys Smith (my Grandmother) , travelling with James Robert Smith, (My Father), from Germany to the UK, 1937/1938.

I never knew my GrandMother and my Father died in 1971, when I was 4 yrs.

A long shot I know :-)

Thanks

Hilary

Lisa
There are no records for your grandparents, sorry.

There a very few Europeans records, mostly Australia, India, Asia, Africa, USA, Canada, some China and Japan

Hi David
I have checked for Thomas Willis b: 1856 +/- 5 years travelling with wife Emma, no enties that match.
Have also checked Emma Willis b: 1850 +/- 5 years travelling with husband Thomas, again, no luck, sorry.

Hi

I wondered if you might be able to help me too.....
Im looking for records of my grandparents who came to England in 1945/1946. They were in a concentration camp in Germany and i believe they came over in a boat and arrived in Southampton although i might be wrong about that.

Their names were Walter Lepak (19.6.1925) and Maria Lepak Kowaleczen (sp.) (22.6.1920) My nana may have lied about her date of birth to make herself younger.....it was a rumour but not one that we ever had confirmed. Both of them were born in the Ukraine.

Many Thanks for any help you can give me

Hello Julia
You write:
Hi David
Could you give me an idea of their birth years and where they were coming from please, unfortunately there a quite a few Thomas & Emma Willis listed.
Thanks
Julia

Emma was born in 1847 but usually lied about her age, making herself younger as she married a youngef man no doubt. Thomas gives his dob about 1856 at their marriage..

Hi David
Could you give me an idea of their birth years and where they were coming from please, unfortunately there a quite a few Thomas & Emma Willis listed.
Thanks
Julia

Hi Carol
Sorry, I cannot find either of them. I have searched with Arthurs birth year and arrival date and also a general search for all Gaters coming from America witin the time frame you gave, nothing.
Regards
Julia

Hi Julia

Thanks for finding Miss Plested, she was the one I was looking for. Please could I ask for another lookup?

The names are Thomas Willis, Mrs Thomas Willis or Mrs Emma Willis between 1882 and 1907,

Thanks again

David
