Find Ancestors

Would be grateful to learn if anyone has anything relating to the above family who emigrated to Perth in around 1900

Many thanks

Have you got some first names and years of birth for some of the Prouts, and then looked to see if they are in anyone's tree on here?

Also, were they originally English, or from a different country?

I just did a quick search of family trees and got 10 matches for people with the surname Prout born in Perth, Australia during the 20th century. ;-)

Were any in pele's tree?

Presumably he is looking for ancestors born elsewhere and before 1900.

Names please, pele.

None in Pele's tree. But if the Prouts that moved to Oz had decendants, they and Pele could have common ancestors. So they could be researching the same people. ;-)

Outgoing passengers to Australia 1900 +/- 5 years gives this result:

Do these ring any bells Pele?

How much research have you done?

What do you wish to know?

Do you want info before they emigrated.................or after?

Many thanks for these relies so in reply:

1. Pele is my user name only, my name is Ernest Martin.
2. My UK Family line has some 6,000 people in the UK only. This particular line relates to my wife's family where her Uncle, William Prout emigrated to Perth Australia around the 1900 - 1920 era.
3. He seems to have married a nurse living in Kalgoorlie becoming a miner.
That is all we know so far
Ernest

If William is her uncle, who was William's sibling etc so we can find his birth year - or do you know it?

Thanks

This one is a miner:

If this is him, there is a vast difference between your first post when we believed he had emigrated around 1900, and one who emigrated 1900 to 1920, (1923?) and was actually born after 1900.

Ernest, we're always happy to help find records but please do give us information that is as precise as possible.

The further information you have given is still too vague.

Ernest,

What is William's approximate birth year, please?

Tracing back from Ernest this seems to be the family with William Thomas born 1903 Camberwell

William Prout 7

If you want useful help, please give factual info..................

The name, birth year and birthplace of your wife's parent whose sibling was William would be a good start.

Thank-you, Astra.

I had thought it could be that 1911 census family, just it would have been useful to know at the beginning.

The W.A. Marriage found by Patchem is in 1931 according to the WA BMD page:

PROUT WILLIAM T
Male
MCDONALD FLORENCE J
Female
NORTHAM
93
1931


There is no death recorded for either of them in WA up to 1970 which is where the online records stop.
