Thanks Cando, sure looks like Fred jnr.

Seeing as it appears to be impossible to find the LEAD families arrival I'm leaning towards the LADE family (see reply #12) with Master LADE being Stanley Frederick LEAD.  I don't think I'll commit to paper just yet though.

Hi Bob,

Stanley Frederick is not their son. He is the child of Fredericks cousins Henry and Amy from Kings Norton. Stanley arrived in Queensland in 1913 with his family. reply #16

Still no sign of the alleged marriage in England for Frederick and Dorothy even with the name Browne. It just is not listed. I don't see them in 1911 and I can't find an immigration for them

Hi All,

I live in Perth, WA.

My father was born in 1934 to Robert & Catherine Lauchlan of Bridgetown, WA, Australia. I'm pretty sure my grandparents owned an orchard on Tweed St, Bridgetown. My grandfather's family arrived in Australia around 1909. My grandmother's maiden name was Catherine Munn.

My father told me he used to catch the train to Fremantle to visit his grandfather in the 1940s but didn't see him again in any other decade. My grandmother's brother's name was Gordon.

I can trace my grandfather's family back a few generations but until I read this thread I had no inkling as to a possible name for my great grandparents.

I have a suspicion that William Henry & Charlotte Munn are my great grandparents. My father is the first born and named William Robert but goes by the name Doug. Robert is a family name among the Lauchlan's but William has always seemed out of place. It would make sense if he was named for Catherine's father.

Does anyone have more information on the origin of William Henry and Charlotte? I'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks.

Rob
