It was a strange week in Adelaide, on Saturday 18th of December, they pulled a Norwegian sailor out of the Port River, he'd been missing since the previous Tuesday, the 14th. A busy week for the plods. The ship was the 'Hoegh Silverlight', the name of the sailor, a Norwegian, was Erkki Nissi. No connection that can be seen, but who knows?Gordon332https://www.blogger.com/profile/17690592260936410432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2649149095048346117.post-54285960392129992562016-10-18T16:30:45.784+11:002016-10-18T16:30:45.784+11:00Anon ...

The man Ina Harvey described as being in the Strathmore at the time, especially her comment ' He didn't murder the King English' fits someone whose English wasn't accented by and Australian, American or English tongue.

It's interesting that the SA one is on North Tce (where the motor reg is these days) - less than 100m from the Strathmore. Perhaps the Strathmore was frequently used by "aliens" who resided outside of Adelaide Metro area when they had to come visit immigration - especially where they expected processing to require more than 1 visit...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2649149095048346117.post-74099205867118162752016-10-17T10:20:01.251+11:002016-10-17T10:20:01.251+11:00Added the two images including reverse side.

The witness on the Application for Registration form appears to be A Dean. This could be the photographer, I will publish a clearer form and in which you can make out the photographers address in Melbourne.Gordon332https://www.blogger.com/profile/17690592260936410432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2649149095048346117.post-32335262827981449642016-10-17T09:04:50.315+11:002016-10-17T09:04:50.315+11:00Is it possible that the "square" A is wr...Is it possible that the "square" A is written by an other hand, and might be an official standard of some sort? I've seen records like that before, for example look at this 'KEANE' (the 'A' on page 1):<br />http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetrieve/Interface/ViewImage.aspx?B=30107941<br />I also notice that on the one marked 39869, the date separator is a dot rather than a slash - which sort of seems consistent with the way the witness on another document writes the date - incidentally, can you decipher the name of the witness?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
