South Africa / Re: Locate immigrant family to South Africa
« on: Tuesday 18 September 12 15:51 BST (UK)  »
All I can find is the following:

November 7th 1914 from London on the Dover Castle (Mail Steamship).

Master W Filby age 3
Mrs W R Filby age 27

Bound for Capetown.

Last permanent address — British Possessions.

For some reason these 2 entries are crossed out, so did they travel?.

If he was born out of the UK, then it's possible they could have migrated from that country.

Sorry it's not much help.

Hi karenp1

Sorry, I can't remember why I was searching for this person.
I help other people (usually Canada & Netherlands) and it was obviously one of them as it's certainly not my family.

Sorry

Hello Ken

On the 1861 census the place name in Derbyshire should read Darley Abbey.
This is a suburb of Derby and just on the outskirts, St Alkmund's church was in the centre of Derby but is no longer there.

Hello Carol

Thanks for the response but this info won't be needed anymore, I should have put that it was completed.

Thanks for your time

Hello Ken

Can't find them anywhere on the 1841 census.
There's a Joseph & Elizabeth Wilsdon but it says they are all born in county, daughter Georgiana age 3 and Joseph's occupation given as Tailor.

Thank you both for the info.
I knew they were aborted during the war but some districts probably restarted later than others for different reasons.
I'll try the Record Office.
