?Emigrant from America to Australia.................
« on: Monday 22 October 07 08:12 BST (UK) »
How do I find out when a relative left USA to Australia?

While browsing though Ellis Island entries yesterday was surprised to find a entry for a relative of mine.

Phillip Hedley Coole died in Perth, Australia in 1990 and married out there in 1928.

According to the Ellis entry when he was 16 he emigrated to the USA in 1921.

Knew he went to sea when young but is there anyway I can find out when he left the USA?

Any help would be appreciated.

He was listed as crew on the 1921 voyage (also he is probably the Philip Coole, no middle name, also 16, arriving in 1920 - also crew).  So I don't think he stayed in the US unless he jumped ship for a little while - and you may have trouble finding his entry into Australia if he was crew, too.

Australia National Archives recordsearch shows that he did enlist for WWII in Australia,  if that helps any.

The National Archives in Kew has the The Fourth Register of Seamen, 1918-1941, on which he may be listed.  (You could also contact Southampton Archives, who hold the originals).
