Estimated Birth Year: abt 1852

Shirley, I have some records from Oz, but I will certainly take your advice and post an 'oz' request. I still have some gaps.

Charles Thomas's occupation was commercial clerk (like Minnie's father) maybe that's how they met! William was a 'builder' and deceased at the time of their marriage. Not very ariso jobs!

:-) Lesley

Have sent two messages that don't seem to have got through! So will write again - sorry if you see it twice though!

Shirley, thanks so much. I don't subscribe to FMP, but maybe I ought to!

Beverley, thanks for the bankruptcy info. He died age 45 having lost 3 babies. It must have been a hard life for them I think. One child I feel must have survived as I found a Leveson Gower line in Perth from cemetary records. Minnie married again.

Ann, thanks for the L Gower info, but I still don't see a Charles Thomas or William - I think they may be the wrong side of the blanket !!! Have searched many times. Nothing on the census or birth records and the info I have came from Minnie's marriage cert. I think they must be related to the aristocratic family as one of the children was named Granville.

Thanks again to all of you... Lesley ;-)
