agnes and alex gray
« on: Saturday 17 November 07 17:18 GMT (UK) »
I'm just starting to look for my grandfathers sister Agnes (Neilson) who married Alexander (Alex) Gray in Glasgow in 1925.  They emigrated to Austrlia soon after, I think in 1926.  I think they went to Melbourne.
Can anyone help withpassenger list or other sources?
Many thanks

Hi Fiona

There are lots of resources at the top of this board.

You could search on
http://www.naa.gov.au/collection/recordsearch.aspx
Search now as guest and then search on the Passenger Index
Also on
http://www.findmypast.com

Found the following death - perhaps you already have the details.  You can search on line http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/servlet/bdm_home  Free to search but pay to view.  You can purchase certificates online and download immediately.

GRAY  Agnes Alexander
Father -  Neilson James  Mother - Margaret 
Place  KEW
Aged 85            1984       Reg No 16050

I need Alexander's parents' names to find his death - lots of Alexander Grays!

Cheers
cando

Hi Cando
Just come on line and think the death you found is definitely my Agnes - and she's the one I'm really interested in! Great news and many thanks.  Will have to follow up and see if she had any family.
Thanks again
