Also Cando  in December last year before my uncle geoff passed away he told me that his dad had a grocer shop in perth. 
all this is really amazing. some of this information is coming back to me. i am going to ring my dad in a minute and tell him whats going on.

question  was his name Frankfield James or James Frankfield? its soo confusing.

My condolences AussieMumwif4kids on the death of your grandmother.

No, you don't need Ancestry to see the link.

Online burial records in WA have your man named as James Frankfield as have other researchers of the HENDERSON family.

Apparently . . .  James and Arthur were two of eleven children, and the eldest son was also named James but he lived only a few days.

thank you Essie.  she wasnt alone at the end i was by her side. but i miss her so much. this is helping me heaps.

we were always told that our family was from scotland. i am now wondering lol how they came to that seeing as it says their parents grandparents were from Ireland.

the name Delahunty .. is that in the vic or sa? apparently both henderson and delahunty  both came to western australia.

Ethel was not born in SA. In fact only a handful of DELAHUNTYs in SA. Passenger lists have many arriving in VIC.  I don't have any VIC bmds on cds to check for a birth record.
