Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Desperately seeking Jessie's Entry
« on: Sunday 15 February 15 13:36 GMT (UK)  »
I really hope someone can help me solve this.

I am trying to find passenger list for Jessie Emily Pettit nee Lowens (b.1892) or any form of information on how/when she got here.
I know she has to have come over between 1919 and 1925 to Australia. She was married in England in 1919 and she first appears on the electoral roles in Queensland, Australia in 1925. She married Charles Pettit while he was home visiting his parents on leave while at war. Charles had previously moved to Queensland, Australia in 1913 with his brother. The family story is that Jessie come over to Australia to live with her husbands brother while her husband was still at war in France and they would soon meet up. So if someone can find her coming in to Australia, that would be fantastic. I have looked but maybe I am missing something. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Emma

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the Historical Images that you can buy off the QLD BDM site would contain the names of a deceased persons children from a 1955 death?

George was born 3 Feb 1926 and his father is listed as James Kirkpatrick, he was married to Sybil Croxon in 1949 in Cottenham. George died in 1973 in Cambridgeshire. In the parish register his occupation is listed as being engineer. That is all the information I have on him.

Thanks all for the information. Hopefully I can track more information down :)

Scotland / George William John Coupland
« on: Tuesday 03 February 15 04:56 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,
I’m hoping someone can help. I’m a little confused and unsure how to work this out. I have a relative that was married to a gentlemen by the name of George William John Coupland. They were married in Cottenham, Cambridgeshire. In the parish registers for their Marriage is says that George is a bachelor of Leith Edinburgh and next to his banns it has written St Nicholas Leiton Southend. I am assuming he is born in Scotland. How do I find his birth records.

Cambridgeshire Lookup Requests / Lowens - Waterbeach
« on: Sunday 01 February 15 02:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I am hoping someone can look at the parish records for me and see if there are baptism records for the Lowens children of Thoams and Mary Ann Lowens nee Robinson between 1873 and 1911. I believe they spent the majority of their lives in Waterbeach. The 1911 census has them listing 10 children born and of the 10, 5 had died by 1911. Any information on them from parish records would be greatly appreciated.
