Member Since: June 2005 Posts: 9 Send Message	Hi, sorry, I have searched this but coldn't find an answer and I am a tad lost. My relative came to Australia from Belgium, not sure when, not sure which ship. He was quite well to do and I am certain he came by choice. Edward Segaert came to Australia. What do I know about him? Not alot. He married (Marie) Agnes Kidd of Dundee Scotland. I have a note that he came to Australia in 1887 but I am not sure that is true. He came from Ostende Belgium. Can someone steer me in the right direction please? Thanks Christine
