Could anyone tell me whether children born in America to a USA father and British mother would be registered in USA and / or UK ? Also, could anyone advise how Brits emigrating under " Ten Pound Pom " scheme to Australia ( post WW2 ) can be traced ? All help much appreciated.

Lorraine Report 20 Aug 2010 23:30

if the child was born in usa it would be registered there

passenger lists to australia are on ancestry but only go up to 1923

but there are australia electrol registers up to 1954

Thanks. Haven't found my relatives on the passenger lists. A silly question probably, but do the lists include air travellers, do you know ? As you can tell, haven't tried to trace " abroad" branches of my tree before !
Thank-you again.

Thanks, that's good of you. Not much information really, but the name is Charles Benjamin Crisp, born c1909, his wife ( believed Irene Crisp ) They had two children believed to be a son and a daughter. Their destination, I think was Northern Territory. many thanks again.

I believe the children were born in UK. Emigrated between 1954 and 1960 I believe. Charles Crisp's occupation was a tailor, and he was based in Middlesex prior to departure. Sorry to be so vague, and thanks.

hi cant find anything for charles cant even find his birth in uk the only charles benjamin crisp i can find married in 1908

Caroline

Caroline Report 23 Aug 2010 16:01

Thanks Lorraine. The Charles Benjamin that you found was his Dad, I think, and this would be the marriage to my grandmother, Ann Ray. Makes me think that, on reflection if Charles Junior born abroad. More research needed by me, I think. Thanks for looking these up - most appreciative.

Yes, Yes, Yes. Orchard Road certainly correct, and a ( vaguely ) known Staines connection. Thank-you all for your help. Lots of information contained herein that I didn't know, and lots for me to follow. So very much appreciated.
