Hi,
I'm trying to find all I can about George Grimshaw Pickering. He was born 1851 (in Ormskirk) and is the son of James Pickering (b 1840) and Marion Howarth (b 1844) who were married in 1871. George appears on the 1861 census but then disappears. Ancestry does suggest trying the SS Egypt crew list - and a George Pickering of the right does appear there for a sailing on 18/11/1873, and also the Australian death index 1787 - 1985, which doesn't really help.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks.
