I have come across some writng in pen ink but is hard to descipher in the back of a old family bible?
Christian Name, Brian Roberts - Surname - Sturret, Sturiett, something like this...
he married Eileen Curnow b.1902? parents (Francis Henry Curnow & Margaret Ellen Prouse) - no date of marriage
Elsie Curnow b.1892 married in Victoria as well as Nellie Curnow b. 1892, no surnames given :-\
Any help will do no matter how small - it all counts and helps to solving the equation in hand :-\

Not sure if I am doing this correctly as it is my first time on this site. Norman Stuart & Nellie Curnow are my grand parents. Have full info on them as well as Nellie's marriage to Henry Hans Kleiner.
