Thanks for your help on James I do have the information on his mam, dad and family and we were a close family when small and I saw allot of James
but after my mam died contact with James was lost as he and his wife had gone to Australia, and when I started looking into my family History I started
to wonder if James had living relatives in Australia, the thing is I don't have
a date for when he went to Australia and I cannot remember and the older
members of my family that would have been able to tell me are no longer here. I am just clutching at strawa that someone might be able to help.

Hi
What was James wife name and approx what time frame did they leave??
There are other James MAUGHAN born 1903 in Australia..(edit to remove Stewart as I realise this was an error)

EDIT..
Did he marry Letitia REYNOLDS in 1950??
There is a possible arrival
James Maughan and Letitia Maughan arrived Sydney per FAIRSKY, 13 August 1963

Thanks to Sylvia and Chris for the replies on James Maughan, I have him born
on the 12thFebruary 1903 at New Herrington, County Durham, then he moved
with his family to Penshaw, County Durham, his father was also James born
1879 and mother Esther Jane Stockdale born 1879 in Ryhope. I new James and saw him allot in my younger years but lost touch after my Mam died and
he and his wife left for Australia, and I don't know the date of when he left, but
would dearly love to know if he has any living relatives in Australia.
