Elizabeth Jane Lander - Edinburgh Area

Post by anngray » Wed Aug 12, 2009 7:04 pm

Elizabeth Jane Lander b.1875 married Wm Wilson June 1895 in Broxburn. Her parents were Susan Maria and Francis John Lander. I am attempting to unravel the wanderings of FJ Lander circa 1900, I understand he went to Western Australia about this time. Who went with him, who stayed in Scotland and who returned? Can any of Elizabeth Jane Lander's decendants throw any light.

Hi anngray
Have you tried a search on any of the web sites which offer passenger lists? The surname is reasonably unusual which is good.

Is this your man? In 1899?

I assume you know Eliza Jane was still at Scotland in 1901.
