This seems to be William J & Eleanor A Bradshaw (nee LONG) who married in Perth in 1922 (reg 776).

their daughter Iris E Bradshaw married Frederick H Smith in 1948 in Perth (reg 792)...if you go to whitepages.com.au there is a possible for this couple still living (F H & I).

This seems to be how the Crain family (cousins) fit in, below; she had a 2nd marriage in 1958 to Richard Andrew Ebenezer WASS and died in 1970 aged 74, daughter of John & Emma B. First husband Samuel Lindsay Gordon Crain (Lin) died in 1956. (The Willison connection is thru marriage - Dorothy's maiden name was Crain.)

CRAIN SAMUEL L G Male BRADSHAW GWENDOLINE Female PERTH 1056 1920

There is a Ruth Bradshaw, daughter of John & Mary Jane, who died in NSW in 1965; may be one of the aunts mentioned.

James served in WWII; he died in the repat hospital.

Hi -I noticed a 'George William Bradshaw' d 24/5/1957 (63yrs)-with parents 'John & Mary' buried in RC section of Fremantle Cemetery.

(shares grave with (mother?) MaryJane Bradshaw d 8/8/1944 (age 80yrs))

Also an Ann Brown Honey d 31/8/1965 (79yrs).

The 'State Library of Western Australia' (on-line) has an 'Ask a Librarian' service ...they could check newspaper death notices for family names -from given dates.

Have any members in Australia any info on any descendants of John Bradshaw, born c1867, Port Isaac, Cornwall who migrated to Australia c1911 and settled in the Perth area.
He was the son of John & Mary (nee Mitchell) Bradshaw of Port Isaac; the elder brother of Annie Brown Bradshaw, born c1887, Port Isaac.
Annie Bradshaw married George Honey, born 1885, Port Isaac, in 1912 at St Endellion , Cornwall.
Annie and George Honey migrated to Australia on 20/12/1912 aboard SS Gothic, settled in the Perth area.
Son, James William Honey, born 1914, Perth. Died 07/03/1951, Perth.
George Honey killed in action 19/07/1916, Fromelles , France
After death of George, Annie, & son James, known to have lived with her brother, John Bradshaw..
My interest in this; George Honey was the elder brother of Gregory Honey, my grandfather.
Any info would be much appreciated.
