Thanks very much!

He was my first cousin X2 removed just like a lot of my family members who fought in France and Flanders. But Victor is the first that we have known to have fought in the ANZACS.

Thank you very much for all this info, I knew that some of the siblings were born in Bolton but I'd know idea that these were born in Australia.

Kind regards, Pete.

I can see 4 children born in the UK... William, James, Peter and Mary. Do you have details regarding their births/baptisms?
