His date of birth was 31st October 1895 and the port of departure we presume to be Liverpool sailing to Queensland. There cvould be a trace of himn in NSW. I do not know the exact year of departure but would have thought it was soon after they married in 1923. Did try passenger lists but got no where. Thanks for your help and Happy New year.

A great Uncle Thomas Boniface Moore was married in 1923 to Mary Josephine Moore nee Gallagher and they then emigrated to Australia, Queensland I Believe. is there some way of finding which ship they went on etc. unsure of the date but it would hae been soon after 1923 I would have thought. Thanks
