Thanks for posting the photo of SS Cuzco, the ship my Great Grandmother emigrated on with her family from Sweden in 1888. I have five photos of this ship now, but yours is facing a different way from another look-a-like.
Hi, thanks for working on Doig-830! Looks great. I uploaded a few pics recently of the Ron Doig Block at Fremantle Hospital. I just thought I'd mention a little tool that I'm working on to make it easier to copy and paste WA BMD references. Here's Ron's birth entry for example: https://wabmd.nfshost.com/birth/1909/1600214
All good Sam, thanks for the email, this family is a rich vein of profiles that I plan to work through. Unless this is your family, then I am happy to back off and move on to further Western Australian Aussie Rules footballers, and specifically Hall of Famers, which is my current project.
As for your version of the WA BMD references they look good, but I am quite happy with my own references and don't see any need to change my system as yet. I use the same format for BMDs for each state and its all just cut and paste with different URLs ofcourse.
Feel free to use your version in place of mine, if you feel it enhances the profiles though. And I am happy to hand the profiles over to you as Profile Manager, if you want to take them on.
Regards
Danny Stapleton in Canberra part of the Australia Project Team.
No worries Danny, you go for it! I'm not related to the Doigs, I just dug into it because I wondered who the hospital building was named after. I've got plenty of other things to be working on! :)
With the BMD citations, the thing I'm trying to sort out is how to search for profiles that already cite their BMD records, hence the addition of the "WABMD-birth-1909/1600214" as a unique string to search for. If only the WA govt provided stable URLs for these! But anyway, it's just an experiment at the moment and I'm definitely not trying to change anyone's workflow or style guide.
I used to live in Canberra. Hope it's still as lovely as always! :)

The Australia Project leadership team are carrying out our annual check-in to see how you are going in the project. We'd really like to thank you for all your work on Australian profiles over the past year! We think we've made great progress in 2020/21 with your assistance.
Please could you reply to this message, to let us know if you would like to stay on in the project and if you are happy with your current role and team involvement. If you would like to do something additional or different, take a look on the Australia Project page to see what other options there are.
It would also be great to get any feedback or suggestions that you have to improve the project.
Hi Margaret; I am still active with Australia Project stuff; mainly immigration and shipping. Though I dabble in Notables, Cemeteries and Convicts from time to time, but only if they intersect with my own tree or if I come across them as they affect a Profile I have taken on.
I probably have way to many irons in the fire to think of taking on any further roles or projects as yet. And I am happy to just continue as I am if that is ok.
No all good Andrew just hoping you or someone else connected to this family would want to extend the tree. I was able to link her daughter Anne who already existed in the tree to them. But I don't have enough info from your existing records to find any more.
I got interested in the Norton family through my work with the Australia Project on immigration Categories. But yo shouldn't feel obliged to do so if you are working in a different direction. It was mainly just a note for any casual researcher in this area who may come along to take up the baton.
The Australia Project leadership team are carrying out a check-in to see how you are going in the project and especially to thank you for all your work on Australian profiles on WikiTree. We really value your participation.
Please could you get back to me by private message to let me know if you are happy with your current role and team involvement within the project or if you would like to do something additional or different. Currently we have you down as a member of the Free Settlers and Assisted and Bounty Immigrants teams. If you would like a change, you can check on the Australia Project page to see what other options there are.
It would also be great to hear any feedback and any suggestions that you have to improve the project. On a practical note, if you are a member of the google group, are you receiving messages ok?
You've added a line, "Note the master is sometimes listed as Captain Hahn.", inside the Category: Catharina, Arrived 22 Jan 1939.
I don't remember seeing this comment made before and I don't think it is accurate - can you identify the source?
Captain Dirk Meinerts Hahn is well known (in SA) as the master of the Zebra (Arrived 1839). The Zebra was the first immigrant ship to arrive in Port Adelaide flying a foreign (non-British) flag. Captain Hahn was popular with the immigrants and they settled and named Hahndorf in his honour.
Thanks,
Steve.
Steve I found it a few times on TROVE. From a few articles before the Catharina arrived on Port, the press were obviously reproducing someone else's error try: Southern Australian (Adelaide, SA : 1838 - 1844) Wed 23 Jan 1839 Page 2 Adelaide Shipping Report. at: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/71685056?

Hi Danny. While we wait for the official launch of the South Australia Team I've created this temporary home for us: South Australia Team Clubhouse This will give us somewhere to meet get to know each other and get started. Do drop in!
Cheers Danny, thank you very much for looking for William Crush. You cited a couple of passenger lists that I did not know about and will be useful to me in the future.
Hi Danny, Thanks for adding name of ship in which Eliza McNally arrived. I can be a bit of a pedant. When Eliza died, it was the colony of New South Wales. Australia came later Thanks.
