I was told they had a son Roy but can't find him in the uk so again I assume he was born in Western Australia.

When were Herbert and/or Bessie born, please?

Presumably this is Bessie's burial, but it doesn't give her age:

Bessie Scarr
in the Australia and New Zealand, Find A Grave Index, 1800s-Current
Name: Bessie Scarr
Death Date: 30 Jul 1945
Cemetery: Balingup Cemetery
Burial or Cremation Place: Balingup, Donnybrook-Balingup Shire, Western Australia, Australia


They were in Australia by 1925:

Bessie Scarr [ and Herbert, farmer ]
in the Australia, Electoral Rolls, 1903-1980
Name: Bessie Scarr
Gender: Female
Electoral Date: 1925
Electoral Place: Nelson, Forrest, Western Australia, Australia

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

I'm trying to find when Hebert and Bessie Scarr went to Western Australia.
I know they were married in Bury in 1918 but I have no more information about when they would have sailed.
I assume as they lived near Perth they would have sailed into a Western Australian port.
I think I found a daughter Alice J Scarr born 1919 in Bury, but she married here in 1941 to a George Winn, so I don't suppose they would have left before that although they may have done.
I hope someone can help, unfortunately anyone who would have known is no longer with us.
