Alfred Davis and Elizabeth Mary Halliday were married in June 1858 in St Austell,Cornwall even though they were both from Gloucestershire.These were my maternal great great grandparents and by 1860 they had emigrated to Australia,specifically Wallaroo which I think is in the state of Victoria.However,by 1872 Elizabeth had returned to Sheepscombe in Gloucestershire with their three surviving children but no sign of Alfred.According to their sons marriage certificate,Alfred was a proprietor of a gold mine. I have been unable to find any information on Alfred Davis in Australia - whether he and Elizabeth had divorced or not as she later remarried in Sheepscombe. Can anyone recommend where to look for information ? Many thanks |
