WOW... what a response... you are a wonderful, generous bunch of folks!
THANKS...now I'll spend today setting my 'Thinking Cap' abuzz!
I did discover that Elizabeth Scott Muir &  Barabara Muir were on the same ship as Mary Drever Muir...
The 'Australasian', arrived Sydney 1884.
I'm tracking down the sisters & their families in Australai.
Now I've got lots more to go on!
Whoopee!
