Find Ancestors

thanks, I logged onto the Mundia site which I didn't know existed and I've copied the photos which are great because I can put faces to names. I've also sent an email off to make contact so am hopeful of a reply. Once again, help from Genes members has come up trumps. :-)

The 'Holmes family tree' on Ancestry has photos of Byers Race, son Edwin John Race and his wife Annie, and grandson Allan Byers Race, and great granddaughter Yvonne Race.

Thanks, I'll try that.

I believe that Ancestry trees are on Mundia:

On Ancestry in Public Members Trees there are entries for Byers Race and Allan Byers Race (grandfather and grandson) is it possible for someone with membership to Ancestry to click on one of them to see what records have been attached. Thank you.

Just logged on after a couple of days, thanks.

The outgoing record (comes up OK on US version of FMP) shows their UK address as 1 Manchester Road.

Given the short time they were away looks more like a holiday than any sort of immigration.

Thank you George. :-)

This looks like him leaving the UK, cant check the original image, keep getting error message

On Ancestry.co.uk immigration arrivals 1878 - 1960 Ancestry has the above, Race is the surname, arriving at Southampton. It doesn't have a date. Could someone please take a look to see where he had been and with who and when he had gone. This just says arrival. Thank you.
PS - I have all his other details ie birth marriage death probate etc its just the immigration bit I didn't know about.
