OK.. Thank you for the reply !
Yes -Rambler , that is a typo - 1876 indeed . and looks like that is my man .

But now he doesn"t fit my profile, now this makes him the Grand Father ..

titch ... your man from preston in 1902 would fit perfectly..
any way of knowing to whom he belongs .??

Australia Lookups completed / Canterbury- NSW- 1920`s- Smith-

« on: Tuesday 29 March 05 14:32 BST (UK) »

Greetings -
I'm starting a search for my fathers sister in the huge country of Australian and some what like a lost sheep at the moment . I`am looking for
" Edna Smith " Born - 1897- Ramsbottom - Lank.
Father - Thomas Smith - Policemen
Mother- Jessie Margaret McInroy.
Brothers- Roy and Cecil.

She appears to have gone to Australia after WW1- 1920 or later..
and went to "Canterbury" . I think - NSW -??
She was not married at the time and if she was like her brother she was well educated and deeply independent - giving rise to her departure to Australia, as her brother "Roy"- ( my Father) moved to Canada in 1920. Other than this info I have no idea of where she would be .

Any suggestions of how to locate her would be greatly appreciated.

Thanking You

David
