Emmigrant - Roland SCOTT
« on: Wednesday 06 January 10 15:12 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help me find out if Roland Scott boarded his ship to Australia with any wife or family or did he marry in Australia ? Roland was born in 1907 with his Twin Ada Kathleen Scott around East Riding. He emigrated to Australia in 1949 and his Family still live there.

Thanks
Katy

Hi Katy,

What state in Australia did he emigrate to & die in?

You say he has family still living here, are you in contact with them at all?

There is this birth in NSW :-\

Birth
30683/1905     
SCOTT Roland
Father Robert  Mother Bessie
District  Albury   

Australian Electoral Rolls
1954 
NSW
SCOTT Gwendoline Mabel  343 Ernest Street, North Sydney  Home duties
SCOTT Roland  343 Ernest Street, North Sydney  Shopkeeper

1954
Victoria
SCOTT Edith  Leura Street, Camperdown  Home duties
SCOTT Roland Leura Street, Camperdown  Manager

There is another Roland SCOTT enrolled in 1954 in Victoria but this person is also enrolled in 1930 as the same address as a Robert SCOTT.  Perhaps he is the 1984 death in Victoria.

Hi,
Roland Scott born 1905 in Albury gives his NOK as Edith in his WW2 files at the National Archives this would seem to  match him with the couple in 1954 in Camperdown Victoria.

Perhaps he is the 1984 death but the mothers names don't seem to agree.

modified to add

Robert Henry Scott b Nth MELB m Isabella Golding 1908  #9577  (possible but surname is different)

Robert William Scott b ELAINE m Bessie Robinson in 1906  #5068

So two different families it would seem and both were born in Australia


The only Roland Scott marriages in NSW and Victoria are prior to 1941

I apologise MissKaty as we are going off at tangents but are trying to eliminate the Roland SCOTT's on the indexes.

It really has nothing to do with the original request but I think there has been some confusion with the parents of the Roland SCOTT who died in 1984.    I think the wrong mother has been listed as look at this birth, probably of Robert his father.

SCOTT Robert
Father Robert  Mother Isabella Lawson MACKIE
At Boroondara  1867  Reg#22223

Deaths
SCOTT Robert
Father Scott Robert  Mother Isabel Lawson Machie  MACKIE
At Caulfield   81 years 1948  Reg#2544

SCOTT Isabella Lawson
Father Mackie Alex  Mother Elizabeth LAWSON
78 years  at Chiltern  1906  Reg#4874

Isabella Lawson SCOTT could not be the mother of Roland b.c1906.  Probably his grandmother. 

MissKay there is a facility to request a lookup of the Roland SCOTT death in Sydney in 1993 on the home page of the Ryerson Index.  The link given by Sue.  Either a copy of the notice or a transcript is emailed to you.  All lookups done by volunteers.

Hopefully it may be the Roland SCOTT  you are seeking.


Cheers
Cando
