Australia / Bunbury, Wellington, WA Marriages & deaths
« on: Sunday 01 March 20 19:22 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there, I need some help please. 
Evan Jarvis born England 1847 was a brickmaker. I have found a record which suggests he left Britain in Nov 1883 aged 36 & arrived in Australia in Jan 1884. His wife & family were still living in Wigan by the next census. I would like to find out what happened to him.
One record shows an Evan Jarvis (singleman) (age not known)  married Mary Roberts in Bunbury WA. His father shown as Evan Jarvis which ties in.
I found a death record for an Evan Jarvis in Bunbury 1924 but have no idea when this Evan was born. (And a  Mary Jarvis death record in 1949)

Any help is much appreciated
Thanks

My relative lived at this address in 1911.  Would anyone know if it still stands please & where it is?  I have contacted Palé Hall & although it used to be part of the estate I was informed that most of the staff houses were sold off some time ago. 
Thanks in advance

The Common Room / James Young Clapperton

I have found a photograph of James Young Clapperton.  He died on 8 January 1943 when he was knocked down by loaded hutches at Prestongrange Colliery Lothian.  He was 17 & a half years old.

If anyone would like the photo please let me know & I will send it to you.

I found it in my uncles belongings after he died.  He was from Scotland but I have no idea what connection there is between him & James

I have found that my great uncle Edward Donald Ditchfield died of his wounds on 24 October 1914. He was a Private No.1778 in the South Lancashire Regiment.  I have located his grave in France.

Would anyone know how I could find out what happened to him, where he was fighting at the time & where he actually died please?  Any other information such as diary records or photographs would be great to find to.

Much appreciation in advance
