Fremantle Western Australia passenger lists 1897-1963 - ancestry

I've found my uncle, aunt and cousin on a list from 1963! They are shown as "disembarking at Sydney", so it is not only passengers who were travelling to Fremantle.
Fremantle Passenger Lists

Fremantle was often the first port of call in Australia, and many passengers travelling on to the eastern states are listed as arriving in Fremantle, even if they did not leave the ship.

oooh, I found my Dad on the list. He was not on the outgoing list from the UK that I found on FMP with my grandma on it. He joked that Grandma was a 10 pound pom but he was a freebie as he was underage. I don't know if Grandma was actually a 10 pound pom though.

Thanks for that; my mum's there, travelling out to Australia as a war bride. I'd already found her on the index on the NAA site, but I hadn't seen the actual passenger list.

Found my Nan, too, returning to Sydney in 1953. She came to visit us when I was 5, but I spent most of the visit shut up in a darkened bedroom with measles.

I can't find this passenger list on Ancestry now.

Its gone missing.

That's strange, Maggie. I wonder whether someone complained about it having such recent information on it.

That doesn't make sense though because some of the other passenger lists go up to late 1950's and early 60's.

I think I might send a message and ask them.

[kiterunner]

Let us know what they say, please, Maggie.

Okay Don't hold your breath it takes weeks for Ancestry to answer questions sometimes.
