Does anyone know what documentation had to be provided prior to migration to Australia from London.
William and Ethel KEABLE sailed to Australia 1912 on "Zealandic" from London to Sydney.
2 children sailed with them shown as Dorothy May KEABLE aged 4
William KEABLE Jnr aged 15.
I cannot find a birth record for either after searching myself and also enlisting the services of a paid researcher. Any advice appreciated. Carley

Thank you all for your replies. I have the other info but cannot find the births for William Jnr or Dorothy.
I wondered whether a birth certificate had to be supplied in UK with their application to migrate. William Jnr was born in 1896 in Lambeth (2 years before parents marriage). Dorothy was born in 1908 supposedly in Croydon.
I was thinking that if birth certificate copies were furnished with travel application, then it might be an idea to check in that area. Does anybody know? Wish Census 1911 was out!! Carley

So sorry, I did not mean my question to cover old territory. The Camberwell Dorothy is not her as I bought the certificate, thanks Annie.
I just wondered what information that prospective Emigrants had to provide to the authorities before being accepted to sail to Australia. I was hoping that if this was so, the information may help answer a few questions on the family. I feel pretty sure they would have had financial assistance to come here.
I very much appreciate your replies and thank everyone so much for that.
Kind regards, Carley

Hi Carley
Do you have either the marriage certificate and/or the death certificate for Dorothy May? If so, do they name William & Ethel as her parents?

Hi Andy, yes the Marriage Certificate does, however on the death certificate of Ethel Keable, Dorothy is not shown as her child. The information provided by Ethel's husband William Keable.
The death certificate for Dorothy quotes Ethel and William as her parents.
She has proven a real puzzle to tie in and that is why I had this idea of what info would have been provided to Emigrate....also where the records might be...if there are any.
Regards, Carley

Hi Carley
It might be a case of waiting for the 1911 census to see if that sheds any light. I suspect that Ethel was not Dorothy May's natural mother and that her birth was registered under a different surname, but who knows what.
