There is a Household with Robert born-abt 1881 England with wife Nora F. C. born-abt 1883 England
and brother Albert born-abt 1889 England

Robert and Nora show as married for 4 years, arrival date is 1907 so a good chance they married in England

no luck on 1st trips for George to Africia or Robert to US.

George did return to UK in 1910 from S Africa with wife Josephine nee (Velleman?).
Also listed 1922 from UK travelling to US on return to S Africia
Victor VELLEMAN in Potcheptroon South Africia is listed as brother-inlaw

Robert appears to have made several trips back to the UK

I've looked on both Ancestery and Ellis Island

G'day Biker Mick

Thank you so very much for the information you've assembled on my behalf.

Great work.

My sister married a SHELLARD in Potch. Potcheptroon] and they are now living in Launceston.

Through my searching, they have made contact with a branch of the Rochester family.  Coincidently they are travelling to eastern Canada in September and will deviate to meet up with the newly-discovered branch.

Your research has put some icing [and filling] on the cake

Sincerely

Crabby
