Thanks gibbo.

Curious. So instead of signing W G Broughton he signed W G Australia.

The Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Australia = W. G. Broughton

[DaveHam9]

Can a death be found for W G Australia? No.

The Right Reverend the LORD BISHOP OF AUSTRALIA in the Chair, ...

So the chairman is W G Broughton.

Not sure what to make of this

[DaveHam9]

No connection I'd say gibbo.

 

[gibbo]

Case closed??

 

[DaveHam9]

It would be good to get confirmation that the Lord Bishop of Australia signed his name in that fashion.

He was the chairman and the chairman put his name at the bottom.

Ok, closed for now.
