Hi  Irene, Having trouble locating Peter Edwards birth, am I right assuming he was Catholic? Found this article, is this him?  Died 1925 age 89.

You said in one of your previous threads that he may have been born in Tasmania.

This item was published a couple of times due to the fact that his son, also named Peter, was a journalist in Western Australia .... but there is nothing to back any of this up apart from the fact that he was paid a pension.
This is the brick wall I have hit .... he was a draughts champion and said in an interview that he was Australian born .... marriage certificate says his father's name was John .... have everything on him from the time he arrived in Sth Australia but nothing verifiable ...
