Gavin I have had a look at Aust' passenger records but not found anything , there are two possible births in the 1920s , nothing on the Aus cemetery list on Ancestry ....

plenty of William McLennans showing in Aus phone book ...but other than that I am stumped I am afraid....unless you can find someone local to Westcliff who might know?

Hi Rose thank you for your very kind offer of help. I am really stuck on this side of my family so anything will be gratefully received.

My Gt grandfather George Edward Stacey dob 1/11/1851 - father George Edward Stacey mother Ann(e) Stevens of 1 Canton Terrace Hoxton Old Town. 1861 Census was in Shoreditch Industrial School together with his brother and sister Walter and Ellen.

After that nothing about him until he reappeared on the 1891 census married to Susan Sarah Pascoe working as a sugar refiner. They married 20/3/1890 living at 29 Ordanance Road, Canning Town Susan died 13/2/1909 also Canning Town.

They had 2 children George Charles dob1892 and my grandfather Herbert Cecil dob 5.7.1894. My grandfather was sent the Australia sometime between 1901 and 1916 when he joined the Australia Army (I have all his army records).

Any information on my gt gt grandfather George Edward Stacey - I have no birth details and I cannot find him on any census, I cannot find a marriage certificate, death certificate (I know it must have been sometime between 1854 and when Ann died in 1859) I have no idea where he was born. He was in the Royal Navy and also a Publican at sometime.

Also on gt grandather George Edward where he went to after 1861 when he was in the Inudstrial School.

Anything at all would be a great help as I am on the verge of closing down this side of the family as I just don't know where else to look.

Happy New Year to you.

With kind regards

Jill
