Not sure where this request should go so if I have put it on the wrong board sorry.
I need some help, it took me over a year to track a relative down in Tasmania and discovered he married a local girl, had five girls and worked on the railway.
The problem I have is that I can't find any evidence of him leaving the UK, all I know he left sometime after 1881.
His name was John Thomas Levis b 1865 Ramsey, Huntingdon, England and the last record of him was in the 1881 census aged 16 working as a Ag Lab and living with his mum.
I would like to find out the following:
1. When did he leave the UK
2. Why did he go
3. Did he pay or work for his passage
If any can help to solve this I would be grateful
Dave
