Hi
I have 2 missing immigrants, I don't know if anyone can shed light on them, or point me in the right direction
Jessie Urquhart born 21st September 1879 in Dunfermline and husband
George Urquhart who was born on 20th March 1881 in Dunfermline
Their children emigrated to Australia sometime in 1928 (they were Robert Mathieson Urquhart born 1906, Mary Wilson Urquhart born 1905, and Williamina Jessie Urquhart born 1914). But there is no sign of Jessie or George on the ships, or remaining/ dying behind in Scotland. They just disappear!
Family legend has it that George worked as a mine inspector in South Africa and was killed there. But there is no evidence that I can find to back this up, (he was working as a factory mechanic in 1905 in Dunfermline - so it seems a rather strange career change!)
Can anyone help me to find them in Australia? on a ship to somewhere...Australia..South Africa, or in Dunfermline????
Many thanks if you can shed light on this mystery!
Rhiannon
