Australia Lookups completed / Re: Charles NELSON arrival in Qld Completed
« on: Wednesday 07 December 16 23:47 GMT (UK)  »
Just happened on this site researching data for old letters for John Frederick Nelson who died 1945 at Rosemount Repat Hospital Brisbane.
I am his grandson with the family descended from John and Helena Neilsen (John was a brewer in Finland) and on the other side back to John James Needham 1834 and Sarah Webster 1833. Charles Neilsen (Nelson) and Agnes Needham boarded at the same dwelling in Swansea. Charles Nelson was a ships engineer (a slight change of name from Neilsen) and so would have been on the crews list. Unfortunately the Nelson line in Qld Australia is slowly coming to an end but the name will continue in middle names. Let me know if I can help you further.
John
