Ann G Taylor b.1884 - Sunderland, UK
« on: Thursday 01 August 13 07:11 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am searching for any information on Ann Gladstone Taylor (born Dec 1884 in Sunderland in the UK), whom I am led to believe emmigrated to Australia on the following voyage:

Departure Date: 6 Feb 1913
Port of Departure: Liverpool, England
Destination Port: Sydney, Australia
Ship Name: Persic
Shipping Line: White Star Line
Official Number: 110620
Master: Lieutenant A H Summers

She was listed as a passenger as "Ann G Taylor".

I am unable to access any Australian documentation and would appreciate if anyone was able to shed any light on where she ended up - marriage etc / any information on her arrival in Australia.

Many thanks

Marcus

Neil
Her parents were George Mark Taylor (b1841 in Seaton Sluice, Northumberland) and Mary Ann Elder (b1848 in Earsdon, Northumberland).
From the departure record it appears she was on her own.
Thanks
Marcus

Electoral rolls:

The first entry is in 1919 in Queensland:
1919
Ann Gladstone THIRKELL and George Henry THIRKELL, engineer at Mosman

1925, 1930
at Racecourse Mill (Mackay, Qld)
1936
Marathon St, Proserpine Qld

1937, 1943, 1949, 1954, - the rest of these are suburbs of Newcastle, NSW, as is Hamilton which is where their deaths were registered.
at 55 Bridge St, Waratah NSW

1963
12 Central St, New Lambton

I'm wondering if they knew each other before the journey as the marriage date is very close to that of the voyage which would have taken about 3 weeks (I think!)
