Hullo Kathleen,
I think I wrote to you some time ago but am not sure.
William Henry is my ancestor too. Mum (Catherine Jean Twomey) always said that they came from Wales but to date I cannot prove it. Are you able to do so, or are you, like me, working on hearsay? I really would love to find out for sure where they actually came from as I am heading to the UK later this year and would really love to visit the particular area where William Henry was born. I have been to Moonta, have you? I took a photo of the area of the cemetery where William was buried.
Kind regards
Barbara

Hi there, The South Australian Genealogical Society (S.A.G.S.) is on-line -they have death/burials to present day. They now offer a 'transcription service' (to save you buying any cerificates). They also do 'searches' of their many records -for $5. ....... Also the 'South Australian State Library' has an 'Ask Us' librarian service - (query form on-line) they will check their records including newspaper d notices and electoral rolls (past & present). .....Valerie (WA)
