What was the name of the sister who went to Australia?  Do you have her death notice?  There is a small chance that Robert may have been mentioned in her death notice.

On the image of the document where it has his height as 5'6½", etc ….. to the left of that detail it seems to be giving an address in Aberdeen, Scotland, possibly a date too perhaps of 27/6/64.  I wonder if that is significant info.

There is a Robert SOBEY arriving in Australia in 1952 accompanied by other SOBEY's on the Strathaird.  There are no ages given.  They are headed for Port Lincoln in South Australia

... His sister went to Australia.

Is this a sister migrating to Australia?

COX Frank born 3 May 1903 and Alice Maud COX (nee Sobey) born 9 February 1903; travelled per NEW AUSTRALIA departing UK on 29 August 1951 under the Assisted Passage Migration Scheme
