Bone family in Argentina

[bigt]

A great uncle of my wife, according to family knowledge, helped to take cattle from SW Scotland to Argentina.  I suspect this was early 1900's.  The story goes that he stayed there.  His name was George Bone, born 1885.

I have now found couple of names of 2 persons on a passenger list, dated 1951,  that may be related.
Margarita Wallace Bone, born c1919 in Argentina, and a Tomas Bone born c1917.
Margaret Wallace was the mother, and Thomas Bone, was the father of George Bone.

I have no other information at present.

Is there a way of finding out more information, like births etc?

Thanks in advance.

Argentina was the destination for many Scottish cattle bought at the sales, shorthorns etc. Presumably your man attended them on the voyage.

Hi Skoosh,

Yes, story is he was sent over with the cattle to care for them on the journey.  His brother, David went with them.  Information is, once the cattle had been delivered, they were going to return home as they had return tickets. Trouble was, they lost their tickets.
