Geo Robertson to Aust from Scotland 1880s
« on: Friday 15 April 05 13:34 BST (UK) »
Hi
Have been looking for George ROBERTSON age mid 50s who came to Australia with just his son, also George ROBERTSON age early 20s around the mid 1880s.

I have been unable to locate their arrival at all until they appear in Qld in 1886.
Has anyone by any chance come across them at all?

With thanks

Thanks Trish
I also found this pair, thought it could have been them only to find there were more of them in that family on Windsor Castle and it is a bit early by 4 years or so.
I am fairly certain there were only the 2 of them to arrive.
Thanks anyway.

Hi,
How have you gone with your George R.?   I'm trying to find a George R. also, and I'm starting to wonder if he was sent back to Scotland, re my post.    Any connection?
