Hi again ricardo...

I believe the following is very likely to be the birth registration for Charles Walter BRYAN (junior).

Western AUSTRALIA

Birth - 1906 - registered at Perth, W.A.

BRYAN - Charles W.



--------

... and that this is the marriage of his parents :

1903

Charles Walter BRYAN
Edith ANDERSON

Place of Registration:   Perth, Western Australia
Reg'n. #    1708

Electoral and Directory listings for Perth, Western Australia :

1903 and 1906 - Electoral Rolls - Perth


BRYAN - Charles Walter - 118 Pier Street, - Cycle Agent

1907 - P.O. Directory - Perth

BRYAN - C.W. - Cycle Bldr.* - 341 Wellington Street, Perth

* Cycle Bldr. (Builder? ) - whilst it not a coach / bus business,  it's an occupation associated with transport.   ;)

1908 - Directory

BRYAN - C.W.   ... same listing but at 387 Wellington Street, and p.r. (private residence) listed as 28 Saunders Street, East Perth.

1908 is last listing -- not found on 1909 / 1910.

Australian Newspapers

http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/home

"The Western Australian" - 21 March 1906 -- page 6

..... Sale by Auction  ... under instructions from Mr C.W. BRYAN, who is leaving for New Zealand, a collection of furniture and household effects, including a piano by Fritz Kuhla  ....


[Hmm ...  (a son born in Perth, Sept. 1906 ?) and still in directory listing 1908,  so the move to NZ was possibly delayed ? ]

Drat !  The image for that 1888 voyage, sometime between (Jan & Jun), didn't give a date / month.    :D

The ship though was the "Tongariro" - from London ...  which I see actually made two voyages to NZ in that six-month period.   ???

The BRYAN sons don't appear to have stuck with "farming".
All three married in the late 1930's.

Lionel, a sales manager and wife Olive remained in New Plymouth and Bernard a driver, and wife Elizabeth Agnes lived at nearby Waitara in the 1980's.
Charles W. (jnr) and wife Ivy Lillian made the move to Auckland and both appear to have died there, although their ashes were returned for burial at Waitara Cemetery in Taranaki.

Archives New Zealand at Wellington, hold Probate files (ex igh Court, New Plymouth) for the following :

BRYAN - Charles Walter - 1931

BRYAN - Edith - 1964
