Hi Bert, If I am wrong,someone please correct me. I think they both came out on the ten pound Pom's scheme,and the deal was they had to stay at least two years,and if they didn't had to pay 120 pounds to go back home before that.
As for Ngaire J Waugh,I couldn't find him on 192. Make me wonder if Audrey Fellows also came out on the ten pound deal and never came back.Maybe that was Audrey Fellows was the hairdresser at Kununnura 1968. I might phone Liverpool Echo and see if there was a memorial in their paper 1998 for Edward Charles Fellow.
Thank you and all for lookups and advice.

Hello Bob,
you're quite right about the £10 pom's.

Ngaire is a female's name, had to look it up myself, I found this for 192,

Wow! Nobody can criticise the people on this site for the amount of effort they are willing to put in to help somebody. That's why wikiwirral is such a great forum. No wonder there are always hundreds visiting on-line at any given time.
By the way, I hope bobypam gets the result they are are searching for. Good luck.

Hello Bob,

An obituary in 1998 would most likely have been placed in either the Liverpool Echo, Wirral Globe or Wirral News.
However, I feel you will need to be very lucky if there's mention of him spending 2 years in Oz, within that obituary.

Perhaps the UK National Archives hold records for migration from these shores for that period of time, you may find something there.

I hope you're able to make contact with Ngaire, I'd be very surprised if she's not Edward's niece, any information from her will be of great value, even if it only eliminates this Edward from the list, Good Luck.

Try this site, it's free, go to England then Warwickshire, Birmingham is in that County, you can leave a message, it's a genealogy site and people are very helpful.

It's for all English Counties.

hello davew3 I went to the site and went rootschat,and spoke to a few of them and they said can't help. Against the privacy laws,and the years I asked for migration,too soon also. Thanks for the idea,and I appreciate all the help from everyone.
