Emigrants to Perth Australia 1881-1888
« on: Saturday 28 January 06 09:52 GMT (UK) »
Nathaniel Cuthbertson and his wife Isabella and child James C Cuthbertson are on the 1881 Durham Census but by 1888 they were living in Perth Westren Australia.

I would be grateful for any passenger list information, Ships name and dates etc.

Thanks

Hi Tabsearch,
I wonder if you might get  a good response if you re-post you enquiry on the EMMIGRANTS TO AUSTRALIA child board under the IMMIGRANTS board.
I'm sorry I can't help you, but I think some others there may be able to when the see your request.

Hi Tabsearch,
I found a Nathaniel Cuthbertson, aged 35, born Newcastle on Tyne, enlisting in the Australian Army 15th May 1917.
He was the son of Nathaniel Cuthbertson of 41 Ruth Street, Perth, W.A.
If you think he's one of yours you could go to the Australian Archives http://www.naa.gov.au and view his enlistment papers - complete with signature - by typing in Nathaniel Cuthbertson and view digital image.
Hope this helps,
Helen

I also found this:

Nathaniel Cuthbertson died, aged 84, 25th Nov. 1941
and
Nathaniel Cuthbertson died, aged 68, 13th Jan. 1951

that was from the website www.mcb.wa.gov.au
You can purchase photos of the headstone/gravesite from there.
