He married in Victoria in 1871 so may have arrived in Melbourne -  Perhaps you would like to search on
http://www.access.prov.vic.gov.au/public/PROVguides/PROVguide050/PROVguide050.jsp

Scroll down to the Assisted and Unassisted Passenger Indexes.

His death

PICKUP
Grimshaw
Father Unknown  Mother Unknown UNKNOWN
66 years  at Brunswick   1906   Reg#4523

His death cert should show how long in Victoria/Australia.

PICKUP Matilda Ann
Father Unknown  Mother Unknown  UNKNOWN
88 years at St  kilda  1936  Reg# 7080


Do you need his marriage reg and the births and deaths of their children?

Cheers

Hi again
and any family history

There is a record which I beleive will turn out to be a son of Matilda and Grimshaw on National Archives Australa. William John PICKUP
You may like to read it as it gives the exact address of his mother Mrs M. A. PICKUP in Fitzroy.
He is 42 on enlistment [b. 1873] and is a cook.  Father deceased.

Hello  there

May  I  point  out that  it is really  a  lot  better  for  information  to be relayed on  the thread  it  is asked for on  rather than by  PM.  I does  help  with  other folk  knowing  what  is happening  and being able to help.  Also  if  you  have other researchers  interested in  the  same family  lines  then  the information  is very benificial  to  them.

If  you  are unsure of how  to work  the boards  just ask away

kind  thoughts Jenn

When you search for ancestors, you find great friends!
