Thanks Rupert.

Did seem like a lot of children for one family.

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Emeltee.

If William arrived in Australia about 1895 then I can't find him in 1891. FS is not much use as it does not allow input of an age range for that year. Why do they make it difficult like that?

If William arrived in Australia about 1895 then I can't find him in 1891.

The obit states he married in 1899 so if they had the dates out on that maybe dates for how long he had been here are out a bit as well. Good chance he was here before 1891??

Thanks gibbo.

Dates are out and so was my choice of birth reg.

Thanks Geoff.

Oh. Those baptism records really sorted things out. Born 1873 so if he arrived at age 18 then must be soon after 1891 census.
