Hello Tuhoto
How fantastic to have a family bible. Thankyou ever so much for the information about John and Jane. Is there any reference to their places of birth or any of John and Jane's children? Also does it give the parents of John and Jane?
I have been trying to find the Reads for a few years, as I didn't know my great grandfather, born in 1885's place of birth.
They lived in Bedminster, which was a very poor place, so James was very lucky to move to get a better start in life. It must have been amazing to see Australia, when people first started settling there.
John's son, John went to London as a paver!
It is mentioned on these postings that John Read was a widower, when he married Jane. Would you know who is first wife was?
kind regards
