Where do I begin please to look for someone who went to live in Australia. They married in 1897 and as far as I can tell they are not on 1901 census. I don't know where to start.

Hi Linda.

Here's a few incoming passenger links to Australia.

To further enquire about where they may have settled, and to find possible death dates and year or to search electoral roll, you would need to know what part / State in Australia
they lived, as each State holds there own BDM's ect.
