Braby Family in Australia

[Nova67]

I have last found Miss Eva Braby b. abt 1890 arriving in Liverpool (from Brisbane) on the T S S Ulysseus on 25 April 1939, via Durban and Capetown. Her country of last permanent residence is given as South Africa. Her  proposed permanent address is what I think is the Standard Bank of South Africa, 19 Northumberland Avenue, London. Her occupation is given as Home Duties.

So possibly no descendants

The family were also travelling in 1919, with Ernest's occupation given as traveller!
