Isaac came to Australia with his family and the Johnstone family (sister Margaret) in 1912. They travelled on SS Orama leaving London on 5th. July. I have a copy of their baggage and insurance details. Isaac wrote about the voyage to Australia, and it was published in the Newcastle Weekly Chronicle, May 16th. 1914. I have an original copy. He was also very involved in the Masons and has written a paper on the Beginning of Freemasonry. I have the original in his own hand writing.
