Are there any indexes on line which list the Brits who went to Australia after 1900. I have an inkling that my G. Aunt FLORENCE IDA DICKINSON might have emigrated to Australia after 1901. No other information unfortunately.

Try the National Archives site.

This lists 8 mentions of a Florence Dickinson, some where she is listed as next of kin.

Technically Australia became Australia in 1901 with Federation prior to that each state had its own emigration schemes. Practically though a number of states hold state based records until the 1920s. The Nationall Archives site only lists the National schemes that have been indexed and not all the records have been indexed.

Is there any family story about where she emigrated to as in which city/state?
