Immigration Help - Hong Kong to Australia

[Foad Family Kent]

I have a family of FIELD's who were evacuated to Australia when war broke out in japan in 1940.
Is there anyway I can find out what happened to them after. Any passenger lists, although they would possibly be fleeing?
 I have no idea where in Asutralia they went so searching for deaths would be impossible. Please help, I have no idea where to start.

That would be fantastic, just thought with hardly any info it would be too much of a task.

Emma Elizabeth Field c.1886 married William Valentine Field c.1911 Shanghai.

Daughter Ellen Martha Doris Field 1912 I have everything on (she stayed in Hong Kong for the duration of WW2 with her father WV Field above who was interned in a camp there, with Ellen's hubby Frank Lee.)

Daughter 2, Emma ElizabethFlorence Field born 1915 Shanghai

Emma Elizabetn Field c.1886 nee Lyons went with her daughter Emma Elizabeth Florence Field 1915 to Australia and nothing heard from since other then a marriage to a Donald or Michael De Souza Richardson for Emma E F 1915.

A niece of Emma, who I have been trying to help with this family was in touch with this family until death but never asked questions.
I was able to find the annoucement in the Ryerson Index.

Possible that Donald Michael de Sousa RICHARDSON was son of Emma and George Thomas Steele Richardson?
