Europe / Re: Antonio de Travers 1852-1931
« on: Friday 10 February 23 02:32 GMT (UK) »I don't know if you've got him on the immigration lists arriving on the Northern Monarch from Plymouth on 12 June 1876 at Adelaide. Listed on the South Australia Assisted Passage Lists, age 24.
See this newspaper article about the ships arrival where he is named: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/31969855
Both have him as Anton Travers.
I remain of the view that he later embellished aspects of his back story!
Thanks for that link, I had found the arrival but not the article. I too am rather inclined to think that he may not have been all that he claimed to be. After all, we haven't seen the letter, only that he said he had received a letter.
