Hello List, I am trying to find this couple for a friend overseas. Siblings and orphans, ALFRED NELSON COLEBROOK(E) born 1888 Tunbridge Wells, Kent and sister LOUISA H. COLEBROOK(E) born 1890 Tunbridge Wells, Kent are last seen in an English workhouse in 1901. Their deceased parents were Charles and Sarah. Family lore states they came to Australia to live sometime after 1901. "Nelson" married a lady called Hettie in Australia and like to be called "Nelson" not Alfred. Did they enter Australia through Perth or Fremantle? Perhaps they settled and married in W.A.? Could someone please have a look for me, I have checked NSW and Victoria without success. With thanks, Robyn Central Coast NSW

For those who have interests in SA, I have just uploaded a page to my website containing 893 baptisms that took place on the Murray River Mission paddle steamer Etona between 1894-1912. Covers most of the towns and landings along the river, there are a few strays from other places like Pt Augusta, Adelaide, even a couple of Victorians (none from WA though - but there are bound to be people out there with connections to the Riverland over here who will find this of interest.) http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jksgenie/etona.htm Julie Stokes Adelaide SA

New to the list and wondering if any subscribers share interest in the BEER surname. There are ancestors in my tree I have recently learned emigrated from England to Western Australia. Would love to talk to anyone familiar with the BEER surname in WA.

Dianne, Try the State Library website and do a search for Swan Hotel. http://henrietta.liswa.wa.gov.au/search/ There are 4 links to information about the Swan Hotel and maybe someone can do a look up for you. You wrote.... Can anyone tell me when the Swan Hotel was built and if its exterior has been renovated substantionally in the 20 Century. A friend has recently photographed it for me and my great grandmother owned it in 1911.

Can anyone tell me when the Swan Hotel was built and if it's exterior has been renovated substantionally in the 20 Century. A friend has recently photographed it for me and my great grandmother owned it in 1911. Thank you Dianne Fraser Wellington New Zealand

Hi there, Thanks Jane and Wendy for your response. Not sure what your holdings are over in WA. In Sth Aust. we can access an Indexed Passenger List which gives reference to the vessel they arrived on in SA from the UK in the 1800's and view the actual ships lists on microfische at the State Library and Sth Aust Genealogy Society. I was hoping that WA had something similar. The website 'Shipslist' doesnt currently include the years I am looking for. I am looking at shipping which came into WA from England c1870 - 1874 which had on board the following: Probably travelled together, but may have travelled individually or multiple: Henry ARTHUR b1821, 50yrs in 1871 Henry ARTHUR (Jnr) b1842, 29 in 1871 Walter ARTHUR b1851, 20 in 1871 Richard ARTHUR b1854, 17 in 1871 Thomas ARTHUR b1857, 14 in 1871 All should be recorded as Miners Richard spent 2 years in WA before moving to Moonta Mines in Sth Aust. Walter married Hannah THOMAS at Murchison in 1870. He was at the Geraldine Mines in 1872. If you are able to look up coastal shipping out of WA to SA, I have found an H and R ARTHUR who departed WA (Albany??) for Sth Aust cJan 1871 on 'Emily Smith'. Could someone verify if that would be Henry and Richard, please. Thanks for your help Ian Gully South Australia Researching Arthur and Gully

Dear Ian, I have never found passenger lists from England or Scotland. I think because a) the numbers leaving were so enormous See: http://www.mernick.co.uk/thhol/eastwest2.html#blackwall and b) in the days when Australia and New Zealand were British territories it was not considered emigration. People could come and go. Occasionally I have come across the census enumerator's report saying such-and -such families have gone to start a new life and there are about 30 fewer to count. The only way to find the passengers seems to be as they arrived in the new countries. see: http://www.theshipslist.com/ If you find something to contradict me please let me know. I have tried to find evidence of my gt grandparents departure from Scotland and Ireland for years.

Hi, I am researching the COPPING family name - anyone in WA interested in them as well, Jenni Researching Parsons, Copping, Clancy, McHugh, O'Neill, Summers, Dawson, Comben, Flann, Maynard, Cotton, Cake, Humber, Mead, Meek, White, Furmage and Glover.

Hullo, I'm new to the list..Could SKS search for a marriage c1871-1874 between Walter ARTHUR b1851in Cornwall and Hannah THOMAS, no further details available. Walter, a miner, came to Aust through WA sometime between these years. He staying in WA for 2 years before heading to the copper mines of Moonta in Sth Aust where he settled and raised a family. There is no obvious record of their marriage in Sth Aust. Can I request help with Passenger Lists from Eng. to WA through this list? I have tried the 'WA Passenger List' site without response to query. Thanks for assistance Ian Gully Adelaide South Australia

Hi Lesley again, Another place your Tobacconist could have gone to was Broome, which was a thriving Pearling community in 1907 - also a place my husband's grandfather (GRAHAM DREDGE) found work for 4 years before going to Kalgoorlie. I hope this information has been helpful, if I can help further please let me know. Oh I just remembered, I put a free add in the West Australian Helpline to look for my Father-in-law's cousin known to live in the Wheatbelt area of WA and I didn't even know her married name - and I was successful! I will send you the email address for the helpline after I send this.
