FLEMING Descendants
« on: Saturday 17 March 07 04:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Are there any Aussie Flemings out there?
I am trying to trace Walter & Ada Fleming ex London, who were £10 Poms, arriving in Aus sometime in 1950/1960s.
I don't know where they settled.

Also, Ada's brother Alf Gibbons, who came a short time later.

If you can help, I would love to hear from you.
Blessings

Hi Bob,,
Thanks for that.  I don't know if it is the right one, but will add it to my "maybes" list.   I don't know Alf's DOB and can't find any listed that look like him.   I was told that he was the 3rd child, which would make a 1914 birth, but Oct 1909, fits nicely in between the first 2 children, so I will check that out on the BDM and maybe get the cert.

I know that Ada & Walter were assisted immigrants, but not sure about Alf.

So thanks, again.

God bless you,
Lyn

Any idea of birth-dates for Ada or Walter?
Any middle names?

Hi Sue,
Ada Louise Gibbons' birth was registered at St Olave, Bermondsey, London in Sep Qtr 1908.  I have no idea for Walter Fleming, but would assume it to be similar, give or take a few years.
At the moment, that is all I know.

Thanks for your interest.

God bless.

Sue,
Thank you so much! You are awesome!

Does anyone know how I can access them, apart from traveling to Sydney?
