I have found Arthur L W Bescoby attending the Baptism of his cousin (GJN Austin) in South Africa on the 20th December 1916 at St Peters Church Vryheid South Africa. The only passenger I can find with the name Bescoby is a male travelling from Southampton to Cape Townin 1909 which would make Arthur 20 at the time. As there are no records for him in South Africa it would appear he returned home after the Baptism. Is anyone able to check this out for me?
