Thank you all for the information.  It looks like I might do better to wait a bit and see if they clear the backlog!😁

Is it possible to obtain a copy of my uncles RCAF service records from WW2?
He is long deceased, as is his wife, no children.

Thank you, Linda

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / 1861 census lookup, LANE

I’m looking for Thomas and Mary Ann Lane - Thomas b. 1816, Cambridgeshire, Mary Ann b. 1820 in Richmond, Surrey.

They married in 1841 in Haggerston, Shoreditch, and in 1851 they were living at Pratts Lane, Hackney, Thomas is a carman.

I can’t find them in 1861?

Thanks, Linda

Australia / Re: Goodna Asylum for the insane, admission records

Thank you!  Yes, Barling did end up in an asylum in England and it’s in the notes from there is the reference to the other brother.

Much appreciated, Linda

Australia / Goodna Asylum for the insane, admission records
« on: Monday 27 February 23 15:21 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for the admission records for Goodna, around 1888-1891 - are these available online?  I have looked at the Archives website and couldn’t find anything obvious?

My ancestor Walter Ward arrived in Mackay, from England, in 1888, age 21, along with his brother Barling. Barling returned to England in 1891, and in his notes is a reference to a brother in Australia being in an asylum, presumably Walter.

Thank you, Linda

Thank you, I do already have this information.😁

The archives unfortunately were unable to find anything pertaining to John in the home admissions etc. - they are not complete.

Thank you Cass.  I too couldn’t find him in Family Search, but I will definitely follow up the “Dead Reckoning” indexes - they look promising!

Thank you both! Love the newspaper ad😁
W.A. Archives couldn’t find him in any records for the home in Claremont, but did state they were not complete.
All this has helped me get a picture of his later life.
