Emigration in the 1950's and 60's
« on: Saturday 15 July 06 10:38 BST (UK) »
Is there any way of finding out if someone emigrated in the 1950's and 60's.

I am sure there isn't but somebody out there might know differently.

Hi Genni

The 2 popular places in the 50's and 60's were obviously Australia & Canada, but this is just a general enquiry as I am doing a couple of searches in the UK and am struggling to find information after 1950 and wondered if they might have emigrated.

For immigration to Australia in the 50's & 60's you would find the records at our National Archives.

www.naa.gov.au

Not everything is online, but if the family immgrated in that period the Archives off ice would have it.

Cheers
