I can't see any other information for Allen Barnes on a tree on Ancestry.

However, Ancestry do have Warwickshire records -

Baptism - St Peter, Coventry
8 January 1902 - Allen AND Edith Barnes, both born 7 July 1890 - children of Henry and Elizabeth Barnes of 45 Queen Street - occupation Weaver.

There is a death registration in Coventry in June quarter 1930 for Charlotte Barnes, aged 46.

I can see a marriage for Allen Barnes in Coventry Registration District 6d, page 1873 - September quarter 1944 to Rose D Bicknell.


Added:  There was another baptism with Allen and Edith - Mary Ann born 15 March 1886.

Plus another multiple christening the following year - some of them were married by this time  ;D

I believe that Allen's parents were

Henry Barnes, born 1839 and Elizabeth Jane Dale - married Macclesfield Registration District, 8a page 162 in March quarter 1865.

They appear to have lived at the same address - 45 Queen Street, Coventry - from at least 1871 until 1911 - although Henry died September quarter 1904 aged 59.

Hi:  not sure what other information you want.  Do you have the census entries for Allen?  Do you know who his siblings were - I can see a number of them, and I can see dates of baptisms, and possibly marriages?

Unfortunately on RootsChat we are unable to discuss living people, but you may like to try posting a message on the "Australian" board to see if anyone can help you in Oz, regarding the brother.

With mother's maiden name of Cowley, and surname Barnes I can find the following birth registrations (after 1913 when the mother's name was indexed):

Edith M - March quarter 1914, Olive - March quarter 1916, Joan - March quarter 1919, Norman - September quarter 1924, Peggy - June quarter 1926 and Lottie J - June quarter 1930 (the same quarter as Charlotte's death registration).  I can see, but haven't looked at details, for a voyage to Fremantle in 1936 for P and N Barnes - birth years match those given above.
