Can anyone find George Hursey/Hersey b. 1841 Surrey and family in 1871 with first wife and daughter b. 1870???

well that makes this interesting...

SAUNDERS EDWARD JAMES : Service Number - NX114598 : Date of birth - 08 Jun 1914 : Place of birth - BAYATE CUBA : Place of enlistment - GRETA NSW : Next of Kin - SAUNDERS ALFRED

Tree on Anc**try has Grace Emily Saunders born in Cuba on 6th August 1919.

I think the electoral rolls Choccy found in Bankstown must be Edna's parents...

Possible death in NSW for Martha (Edna's mother) - but she would have been 90!

12886/1969 SAUNDERS MARTHA
father GEORGE
mother JANE
district BURWOOD

I just noticed you say "Martha had brothers and sisters also nieces and nephews who were left in London" - so she came to Australia as well?

Or do you mean Edna?

This means George had a previous wife as eldest 2 born before his marriage to Jane in 1876. The 1871 Census might shed some light on this.
