Cant see anything relating to leaving Southampton for South Africa, but she arrived back on the 19th March 1948, upon the capetown Castle. Address listed was 59 Foundry Lane, halebank.

Thanks Phil, unfortunately these are not my Eleanor, she was British!
I know for sure she went through the Canadian boarder through Buffalo, USA.
She was going to visit her brother in Ontario Canada.

Hi England Phil
Many thanks for this, but I'm not sure it's the right King because Ellen was born as a 'King' - unless she married someone with the same name - like a cousin. I'll double check some details.
Hi Familytreefreak
Could you please create a new thread for your enquiry as I receive all responces to my enquiry.
