Just coincidence I think, but quite a big one!

The name Bolton is mentioned (and I think is also in that MyHeritage tree)

The information jonw65 has found for you indicates that this couple had at least one daughter who was a student in 1980 when the family lived 12 Uralla Street  Dorrington Queensland.  Father was a surveyor.

Hello Sandra, Jon, & Shaun,

Thank you so very much for your fantastic work. And how amazing to find Albert's remains  lie not far from where I work.

I genuinely don't think I would have though to look in Australia and nonetheless I am so glad you did.

I will look and try to find when Albert came to Australia.

Thanks so very much once again.  :-*

Westy

By the way, if you are looking for Albert on the Megantic, departed Liverpool 25 April 1914, via outward passenger lists from the UK...
On ancestry he is A Book, 29. The other site has him as A Bock.
The second and third letters in Beck are a bit unclear! But it does say that he is 29.
Confirmed by his ticket number, 3172371

It's not always easy to find them!
