Hi Sue

 I did not know of this website. Thank you. I have so many relatives buried there.

That other nankervis is worth an investigation! What do you think Cando?

I have to go home now I have done no work at all.

The death in in 1917 says 47 years in Oz  so  that means he arrived 1870C

BUT William George Henry NANKERVIS was born in 1860 in SA to a John Nankervis??? and he doesn't appear to be on  the death certificate as one of his children neither does Thomas Adams Nankervis.

I guess the only way this can be proved is to find a shipping record.  His age on the  marriage cert in 1871 does not tally with his age at death.

can you see what I  am trying to convey here.

This man  may not be  the father of William George Henry NANKERVIS.

Hi Cando

This John Nankervis, his mother Jane Grylls, I have seen this entry in Ancestory some times spelt Grills. May be worth investigation what do you think? Have you seen a death record for this person in VIC?

Sue I know the dates seem wrong with that John Nankervis which is why I thought he may have been lying. Somehow though I am going off the idea.

Just want to thank you so much for your help. I have been meeting so many brick walls with no help, and even though we may yet get another one we are trying. ;D

Hugs to you both
