Searching for Strang
« on: Monday 13 February 06 15:47 GMT (UK) »
 Looking for Donald Alexander Mckay Strang ,who was born in Glasgow in 1932, or any descendants

He emigrated to NSW in 1959 and family rumours have it that he went on to New Zealand, although nobody has heard from him since he left Scotland all these years ago.

Hi Caroline,

Go with what you know, and start in Australia. Try National Archives Australia for any mention of him, e.g. arrival, naturalisation, occupation, departure, etc.

Try the Rootschat Emigrants to Australia Board.

If you're in the UK contact the UK or Scotch(?) Salvation Army Family Tracing Service who are recognised experts.
