Lynne, Again thank you. I also found "the" Lord Amherst in the National Archives of Australia, in 1959 in a photograph looking at a couple of surf boards held by Life Savers, at Newport Beach, with him was the Duke of Abercorn. I have also found an Amherst Street in Sydney and there is a small mining town in Victoria called Amherst. There was also an Amherst hospital on the Goldfields. Also, a town in W.A. which has been renamed Glen Forest. Not sure if these places are named after the Amherst family who visited here, or after the 1st Earl, who defeated the French in Canada. He named his estate in Kent in England "Montreal" and was the great grandfather of the Lord Amherst I am interested in. I would like to find the ships they arrived on. Though around the late 1930s, being as wealthy as this family is, I suppose they could have flown here. Thanks again.
