I have searched through 1,406 passenger lists looking for a family who sailed from Buenos Aires to England between 1905 and 1909. without any luck.
Letters/stories written by two separate ancestors who were members of the family mention and confirm this trip in detail. But as the letters were written when the family members were older the dates may not be quite accurate!
One letter mentions that 10 tickets were bought and that the family were to leave Uraguay on Sept 2nd 1907. The steamer of White Star Line from Australia to England named “Ionic”
The family stayed in England for about two months before returning back to Buenos Aires.
Im given to understand there would have been eight people plus a maid in the party.
Family members would be.
Mrs Annie Wright b 1861.
Carrie/Jennie Wright b 1887
. John William Wright b 1891.
Annie Wright b1892
Nellie Gertrude Wright b1894.
Sydney Wright b 1896.
Edith Constantia Wright b1898
Arturo Wright b 1901
Elsie Maude Wright b 1903
If anyone can help in this search I would be very grateful

I would just like to say thanks to anyone who may have been searching, but I have just finally found it, I cant believe it, I have been searching for months!!
The port of departure was Bombay and that confused me, however it would appear that the family were picked up at Montevideo.
Cheers Maureen
