Tricia,
This is tremendous.
I had no idea his family had any Wilts connections.
Roger an adventurer, went off to Aus as a young man.Was enlisted into the Australian Army during WW1,and came to be stationed at Codford, Wilts.
I knew him as a child, great character.
Thanks so much for this, its really appreciated.
This is now complete.
Thanks Brionne.

Tricia,
Well, what can I say.
This is quite something.
For years my family have wondered about where the Steeds came from,and it was Wiltshire all along.
Cant thank you enough.
