Hi folks,
I've now found that Gilbert Dowling Henderson was the 3rd eldest child and also eldest of the identical twins with Edgar Le Blond. There was biog entry about Gilbert  who was a famous dentist I found googling quite interesting stuff!

Need to find eldest 2 brothers guessing born after parents marriage in 1885 and before 1890. Twins were born in Hawthorn, Melb.

Family moved to Western Australia in the late 1890's with 5 children so hoping to find deaths for another one and death date of Marie Kathleen in 1892.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Lily,
Trying to summarize the content of your 3 threads. Is this correct.
Peter Edwin Henderson m. Blond Leblon
They had children
Edgar Jerome 1861
Marie Caroline 1863
Emily Loisa 1865
Albert 1867

EDGAR jerome m. Mary O,Neil in 1895
They had children
Edgar le blond  and Gilbert Dowling [twins] 1890
Mary Kathleen 1892
Vic Leo 1994
Moya 1896

All went to WA.

You think there are 2 older children [you say BROTHERS] before the twins.
 

In 1925 Edgar Jerome marries Edith Beecroft [Clegg]. Second time for both HE dies 1928 Do you know what happened to Mary O'Neil?
Am I right so far?
I hope we are on the right track to continue your interesting search.
Sue

This is part of information I got when I googled Edgar's name

"Congregational Hall has a close association with H. S. Trigg, grandson of the founder of the Congregational Church in Western Australia.  Congregational Church has a close association with the architect Edgar Jerome Henderson (Criterion 2.3)

In 1906, the size of the congregation had grown to the extent that a Church could be built next door.  Congregational Church was built, in 1906, to a design by E. J. Henderson, and expresses Art Nouveau influences in its stained glass windows. 

Edgar Jerome Henderson was born in Melbourne, and practised in Victoria where he did some church work:  Sale Cathedral (1885) and housing in Moonee Ponds and Essendon.  By 1896 he had moved to Western Australia and was working on the Convent School, Highgate (1898) in a partnership style Jefferies and Henderson.  By 1904, he is listed in his own practice and designing various commercial and residential buildings"

On National Archives website that Magoo gave is an Edgar Henderson Architect, listed as one of seven Western Australians receiving New Years Honours ( 31 December 1960)

Another relative perhaps....... ;D

It's intersesting to know that the above names of Trigg and Henderson are both suberbs of Perth - is it possible that there is a link?
Ford, Baines, Dixon, Platts, Peat, Proctor, Rotherforth, Dakin/Daykin, Sales, Beech, Hall, Parkin, Nightingale. ----- Harthill, Waleswood, Woodhouse-mill, Whitwell

South Yorkshire/Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire

Torremocha, Candog, Ramos, Reyes, Rodrigueus
-------Philippines --- Bohol
