History of immigration from China
Select a language: English Cantonese Mandarin

Map date: 2004Chinese settlers first rushed to Victoria in large numbers hoping to strike gold. Most were men contracted to agents who sponsored their voyages, and they faced years of difficult repayments. They also sent money back to their families in China.

By 1861, the Chinese community was already thriving, making up nearly 7% of the Victorian population. Melbourne’s Little Bourke Street became a bustling centre for Chinese cultural and business activity.

HI Allan

You dont give any dates for BMDs?


You might want to add Australia to your title so that the ozzy researchers see it, they might be able to help

:-)

I think I'm waiting for a miracle.

Thousands of Russians migrated to Australia from Harbin China after WWII - and yet I can't find a single record of this migration.

I'm also subscribing to the Ancestry website. No joy there either.

With help from people here, last year I found a lot of my relatives in Russia.

In the 1960's arrived in Sydney Australia from China with his daughter Tanya. Had been living in Harbin after escaping from Russia.

I have his NSW Electoral details from 1980.

His first wife died in China. His second wife was Lidia Prestavko (nee Moiseeva) - sister of Ekaterina Ivanoff m. to Anatoly Ivanoff ... later married Vasili Emelianovich Orlenko - son of Mr Orlenko and wife Marina.

Philip's first wife (name?) had a sister in Russia called Lidia Assunchic - children Mikhail, and daughter Tanya Sirtseva.

Philip Timothy (Timofei) Besumoff's father and grandfather were called Timofei (Timothy) Besumoff. His grandfather owned a brewery in the Russian city of Perm.

Thanks for any help!
