G. Sent: Sunday, 17 November 2013 1:14 PM To: KENT-ENG@rootsweb.com Subject: [KENT-ENG] Seeking G/F Robert WALTON to the UK 1949/1950? My G/F Robert WALTON has been found in the Passenger lists arriving Southampton 21 Jun 1949 & Departing London for Sydney, Australia 20 Oct 1949. He remarried Sydney, Australia 24 Dec 1950. I would imagine that he then visited the UK sometime in 1950 with new bride Mabel Helen WALTON, as they have been found departing Southampton 23 Dec 1950 for Sydney, Australia. But; what cannot be found is their departing Sydney for the UK? I would very much; like to find when they left Australia and arrived the UK if at all possible.

Good evening Ann; Yes: G/F Robert WALTON went over to the UK 1949 by himself; returning to Sydney where he married Mabel Helen PETERKIN and then together I would imagine in 1950 sometime; he revisited the UK with his new bride. Record of G/F Robert WALTON arriving Southampton and departing London in 1949 have been found, also record of G/F Robert and Mabel Helen WALTON have been found returning from Southampton 23 Dec 1950 for Sydney, but; what cannot thus far be found is G/F Robert and Mabel Helen WALTON departing Sydney and arriving the UK in 1950? Yes: by rereading the previous message I sent to the list; I see I made a mistake; Robert WALTON and Mabel Helen PETERKIN married here in Sydney 24 Dec 1949 and not 1950 as I had shown: Sorry about that.
