No he was born in Bedford (though way back the Gribbles hailed from Crediton, Devon). His parents and siblings by 1890's moved to Barrow in Furness, Cumbria (where my dad, though not a Gribble) was born

Fantastic - what great work!! 

I am beginning to think that he stayed in Australia and as a result they all thought he had died (or said that he did)

certainly his relatives in BArrow in Furness thought he had died in WW1 (I had a letter from a niece of his) yet he left the army before the war started

interesting... think he was younger than that; stated age as 34 in 1911 census so that would make him 38 in 1915
