Wilshire family
« on: Tuesday 04 December 12 20:07 GMT (UK) »
The Wilshire family emigrated to Australia from England about 1969.
How can I find where they settled?

Unless you have evidence that the people are deceased, their whereabouts and other factors of their lives cannnot be discussed on the open board.

Using the PM system those of us who have access to Electoral Rolls, may be aable to assist given fuller details.

If you are certain  the people are no longer living and you would like assistance in your search from other Rchatters, provide all information you have, most critical being parental names, birth dates and marital status.

Other options
Read the list of resources at the top of the Australian board where you will find links to a great many useful search sites.

http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au has an index of passengers arriving under assisted migrant scheme up to about 1972.   Just search the main index (not the passenger index which only goes to 1949). 

You can request a digitised  copy of the record (costs money).

Searching the telephone directory may prove useful.
