Johnson & Old Families - Dingee/Raywood

Classification: Query
I am looking to determine how long my relatives, the Johnson's, lived with the Olds prior to moving to Western Australia.

Mary, Claire, Joseph Ray and James Bassett Johnson were the children of Joseph and Elizabeth Anne (nee Bassett) Johnson. Following the death of Joseph in 1892, Elizabeth married Thomas Spear Old in 1895 but died in 1896. At this stage her children would have been 15, 14, 8 and 5 respectively.

Mary and Claire pop up in Kalgoorlie in 1906 and Joseph Ray was in Perth in 1913. James also possibly in WA at the same time although he was in Bendigo in 1914 when he enlisted.

Would be interested in finding out when and how all moved to WA. Mary and Claire arrived in WA via Esperance (as per their descendents) but there were only very sketchy records kept of arrivals into that port.

Any help appreciated.
