Yes that's what got me interested in him a few years back. Frank, the author, is a nice guy and I've been in correspondence with him about Josephs.

I didn't find any, for any of them either Janette. Nothing on Archway but for a Harold Joseph's but all with middle names, so not sure.

A new twist maybe.

On Ancestry trees I found an Albert Josephs b 1907 Wellington  , father Phillip Josephs, no mother mentioned.
Albert married in 1936 NSW to a Thyra Marea A Young.
Albert died NSW 1963 killara Hospital.

I've had a look on historical BMD's for other Albert's, with father Phillip, there appears to be only the one Janette found. However I don't think BMD's are complete.

Wonder if it's worth heading to Aussie ;D
