Hi

I am trying to trace my grandparents, and my mothers journey from when they arrived in Sydney in Feb 1951.

I believe from photos i have that they were at Burwood (Now Woodstock?) before moving to Geelong. How would i go about tracking their movements, are their any records of where they were assigned on arrival.

Also, my grandfather stayed behind when they returned in 1953, but i cannot find any records of him leaving.

Thanks for any help offered
