Comments

The quarantine log for the SS Tamaroa shows that Nadia Seraphina did travel to Australia with the family. The whole family were in Freemantle, headed for Sydney from Singapore, on 10 October 1945. She did not, however, continue on to Scotland with William and two of the children, Billy and Vera, in 1949.

Nadia Seraphina (my grandmother) travelled with her family to Australia and eventually settled Central Coast of NSW with my step grandfather Leo Stirling.

She passed away 2nd October 1988.

William Seraphina (Bill) is my uncle and is currently residing in Brisbane Australia
