Naming the 62 Balts to Bangham (1948-49) by Ann Tündern-Smith

The 62 Baltic refugees sent to Bangham via Wolseley in South Australia from the First Transport via Bonegilla were named on a 'Schedule' prepared by the Commonweatlth Employment Service and placed on their file 21 in the series MT29/1. You can click here to see the original forms.

I thank Jonas Mockunas for digging deeply into his pocket to pay to have this large file digitised.

I've added links to the names of those men who have been mentioned or discussed in previous blog entries and will update the links as more biographies get written.
