Hi listers, Hoping someone can help. I have been helping a friend who lives in New Zealand find her family from England. After 13 years we have just found her sister. My friend Joy was adopted and new nothing about a lot of the family except for small bits I had done 13 years ago for her. We have been told she had another sister, in fact there were twin sisters. One named Deirdre the other Elie born 1930. We have found Deirdre on a passenger list 1956 from England to NSW on the Orion. The NSW marriages don't show a marriage up to 1959 but she may have married after that date. I also checked out the deaths, nothing for Rosseeuw. I also looked at every Deirdre or similar spelling. So she has either married or she may have moved out of NSW, or died. Is there any other way of finding out if she married after this date? If I was able to find a marriage is it possible to find living people in Aussie? Deirdre's parents were Ruby Agnes Evans and Emile Rosseeuw. Emile was killed in 1933 in a plane accident in Cape Town South Africa. Agnes remained in England and remarried to Percy Purvis the same year her husband was killed and her daughter was born, Joy in 1933. If there is anyone on this list that may know anything about Deirde and family we would love to hear from you as there is a lot of new family out there. If anyone can offer any ideas on trying to locate her would so grateful for any suggestions. Time is marching on and the icing on the cake with this family would be to locate the missing link, Deirdre. Sue Greene NZ.
Have you seen the public family tree on line through www.ancestry.com.au for Emile Rosseeuw and Ruby Agnes Evans, links to Purvis..Purvis names rings a bell for me in that we had a pow by that name at Holzminden in ww1...
