This is a 'long-shot' query. I'm looking for anyone searching the McAtee surname in Australia. Specifically, anyone who is descended from Arthur McAtee (MCATEE) , born Ireland abt. 1852 - -- married 31 Oct 1873 in Dalry, Ayr to Martha FERGUSON (born Ireland abt. 1851) -- -- who emigrated with Martha from Scotland (most likely in Ayr) to Australia sometime between 1875 and 1881. I look forward to your response. Thank you Jim Arnott, Canada

Hi Jim, I'm not related to your McAtees, but I'm in Australia so I had a look at a few searchable indexes. I didn't find a mention of your people in Victorian or NSW immigration indexes online, though an Ann McAtee came into Victoria in 1857. I checked the birth, death and marriage records up to 1888 for Victoria, Tasmania, Western Australia and New South Wales but didn't find any mention of them, though there were other McAtee families. Sorry I can't be of more help.
