New South Wales....Eva MUNFORD Paul George MUNFORD
« on: Sunday 07 June 15 09:25 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I'm looking for info on my Great Aunt, Eva MUNFORD (nee Balls) b1910 Gt Yarmouth UK and her son Edit - living.

She emigrated form Gt Yarmouth UK in 1948 on SS Ranchi bound for Sydney after her husband Geo Thos Munford was killed in WW2.  She was listed as a farm worker on leaving UK and I think she may have lived in Coledale NSW and died in 1989.

I think she may have also got remarried to a James Herbert LUMMIS, but can't be certain.

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks

David
