Hello, I have an Andrew Willis & his wife Jane/Jenny who emigrated to Oz in the poss.early 50's They returned during the 60's but not sure to which port. They came from Newcastle upon tyne. Would you see if you can spot them ? Thank you

Julia,

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I shall put this chap to one side for the time being. It was very much a long shot anyway. I am sure I will find him one day.

Happy hunting.

Information would be much appreciated on Canadian Passenger Lists on
Ancestry:
Alfred Sutton 1882 +/-2
There are two showing up - but I don't have the right subscription. Any information on them and their families travelling with them would be wonderful.

I am beginning to think this chap was abducted by aliens.

Thank you,
Elisabeth

Margaret

Sorry, nothing for her on these lists.

Hi Wendy

The records are for commercial ships only. If you haven't already, try putting a request on the boards for help with Merchant Navy records, someone's bound to have info and would be willing to help.

Julia
