Thread: Lucy Florence Watkins, going to Australia

looking for a departure for my aunt Lucy Florence Watkins, going to Australia. Have no idea when , only early 1900, but before the war.

Hope that gives you some information to go on. Also I think she travelled alone ,but not sure. Thanks for your time and effort. Lots of great help on this site!!

As an afterthought she (Lucy Florence Watkins ) just might have travelled with her brother Herbert Charles Watkins. also of East Molesey, Surrey. born 1900.

Thanks again

Daytona.

Greetings,

I have just stumbled across this page. Lucy Florence Watkins was my grandmother.

Other than my sister there are no other relatives in Western Australia of the Watkins (that we are aware of) and would be very interested to find out more about her life prior to coming to Australia.

I can fill in the gap about Australia.

Just for interest she lived to just short of 102 and passed away in 1992. Her actual birth year was 1890.

Regards
