Hi Lisa.

Queensland incoming passenger list is on-line.
This is an Index only.....but the image can be ordered by quoteing the image ( IMM ) numbers.


The index shows Joseph was travelling alone...

RUMSEY Joseph age: 19 Ship: Duke of Sutherland arrival: 30 Dec 1886.... IMM/121 418 Z1963 M1701, M1702

The link is

There is no marriage showing up for him in England, so I guess (if he did marry) it would have been in Australia.

Hi all.

Was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to where to go next with this.

According to Ancestry my relative, Joseph Rumsey born 1867c in Kinson, Dorset, mother and father John Henry and Mary Ann (Nee Guinea)

Arrives in Brisbane on 30 Dec 1886
Death 29 Sep 1939 in Queensland.

Where can i go to look at the image (not on ancestry) to see if Joseph travelled with anyone or if indeed he was married or if he married when in Australia??? Any children etc???

I have looked on National archives of Australia, but no luck.
Thank you all.
Lisa
