Thanks Geoff.

William married twice. First wife Mary died in Ireland.

Don't know if this is the 2nd marriage.

266/1887 PARK WILLIAM - FALLON MARY - SYDNEY

Can't find a notice in Trove.

Wife is Louisa.

Can't find a marriage that fits in NSW or Vic.

So, did he remarry in Ireland and arrive with wife ? ?

How odd.

Marriage 3734/1901 PARK WILLIAM S - WILSON LOUISA - GLEBE

Something is not right.

Birth PARK WILLIAM S 31268/1900 WILLIAM S - BARBARA - GLEBE

Mr. Park was twice married. He is survived by a widow and two sons, Messrs. W. and G. Park, both of Sydney.

The Will has the wife as Louisa. ??

Can't see a death after 1925 for Barbara.

Going ok thanks.

All the items for auction this Saturday have gone. All the items for charity have gone.
Some sold last weekend at a garage sale. Some went in a council rubbish pickup yesterday.
All remaining items go to new place next Thursday IF settlement takes place.
