Find Ancestors

Thank you Kay,I have only just seen your message to me,thank you.

Thanks Vanessa.

Checking the aussie phone book (whitepages), there are only 3 Ducklings listed in the whole of Aus!

Might be worth contacting them?

Thanks Sylvian,

IF they went to Australia, whether by sea or air, they should be listed on the following site ............................... I have found names of immigrants through the 1960s, which was the prime time for emigrating under the £10 scheme


http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetrieve/Interface/SearchScreens/BasicSearch.aspx



It can be a bit confusing to work your way through ........ but try Name Search first.


Passenger Arrivals Index is a bit more specific ................... "Search for passengers arriving by ship in Fremantle and other Western Australian ports between 1921 and 1950; or arriving at Perth airport between 1944 and 1950. "

Thanks Kay They had two daughters,following on from your ealier post there was Audrey 1947 and Gillian 1958,with the McElhinney maiden name,but I have been looking for a marriage for both of them and nothing found,so possible the whole family went abroard,I will still keep looking on bits though.thanks again.

Many have McElhinney born Scotland in trees,,,,,,Renfrew/shire and Glasgow,,,,,,perhaps there could be a link to S,McElhinney.?

They arent showing on Australian Archives immigrations,but that could mean they are still not made public.

If they emigrated,then,,,,,US,Canada.SAfrica,was the places in the 1960s,

Passenger lists leaving uk are for sea travel and dont list those flying,

I was thinking that Gwen,now would,nt that be a turn up.

He could still be alive.............

Thank you Kay,there are some days when someone really shines.....today Kay you are that person.

Well found Kay :-D

He married in Scotland 1941.

Thank you guys,this one certainly is becoming a mystery,if anyone else could throw some light on Stanley and Shelia,it would be much appreciated,thanks in advance.

Wonder if they emigrated

Travel records only go to 1960

Strange there,s very little on him only the birth and electoral rolls

Just posting to keep in view
Name: Stanley G Duckling
Mother's Maiden Surname: Punchard
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1919
Registration district: Kensington
Inferred County: Greater London
Page Number: 275

Two Kensington district births - 1947 and 1958 - females - mother's maiden name given is 'McElhinney' and 'McElhiney'

On a couple of the ERs he is recorded with an "S" - indicating he was serving in the armed forces. They could have married overseas. He also appears to be in some sort of barracks (just men recorded) 1945/6.

there's also nothing showing up on ancestry

I did look on there Sylvia,ok thanks.
