      Found records for mum & dad. Ship's name, date of arrival, port etc…

    • I don't exist either.

    I can't find my own record. Is this Genuine ? I doubt !!

  • Looks like it only includes:
    UK, Outward Passenger Lists, 1890-1960
    Fremantle, Western Australia, Passenger Lists, 1897-1963

      Scroll to bottom of this page for what's included.

      • Thanks. For some reason one search I perform only picked up that one additional database.

        Edit: The narrowness of my search only pulled results from that one database (facepalm)

        • Ye, fill in as many details as you can. Brings back a far more accurate & detailed result. Cheers.

        TIL Tony Abbott was only three when he came to Australia, but it wasn't until he was 23, in 1981, that he became an Australian citizen so he could get paid to study in the UK with a uni scholarship only given to Aussies. He was a British citizen until he was elected to Parliament in 1994, at which time he had to renounce his British citizenship.

          Why did we vote him in!? Oh, right - it was a middle finger to Labor :-P

    This is great. I figured I'd take advantage of this deal.
    I found when my grandmother and her three sons (one of which is my dad) arrived from Italy in 1958. I just called my dad to tell him and sent him the photo. He was blown away.

      Your face says it all ;)

    • I found my grandfather and great grandfather they arrived together, didn't see any photos though that would've been cool. Having a hard time finding anything on the other side of the family as some of the name and date details on that side are very fuzzy.

    Sweet… background checks

    "England, Alien Arrivals, 1810-1811, 1826-1869" - I knew it, we are not alone!!!!

  • I don't know what I'm doing wrong… it keeps trying to get credit card details… @_@

    Ok worked it out… it's been one of those days…

  • My father arrived in 1964, is there anyway I can get a copy of the original passenger list from another source. It is not on this list.

  • I need to update them.

    They've got 10% (at best) of my ancestor's history. Subscribe to see 1 scanned image?

    I tend to think they've been resting on their laurels for a long time.

    I looked up tightarse.

    Seems he came from Beersheeba.

    • No. He came from Amazon.
