:)Thank you to everyone for their help and research you have made a small dead twig on our family tree blossom into life in just a few days. If any one does know what has happened to the missing children from the first marriage, I would love to know, but
I now know who the James Family were and that Irene Place still exists.

Hi,
The National Archives hold a digitised ww1 service record for Harry JEPET (sic) Dawbarn [ there are a few different spelling attempts at the second given name]
He enlisted in 1916 saying he was 36? and a pastrycook
As Next of Kin he gives his sister LILY GREENWOOD who lives at Izzett Street Prahran.
The name  is then crossed out & replaced with HARRY Dawbarn.

As one living locally, I am struck by the proximity of many of the revealed addresses, to 150 Williams Road and to the other real estate  held at  his death by William James, including Motherwell Street.
Sue

ADDING
LILY was often a shortened or diminutive version of Elizabeth or Eliza.

Harry's sister Lily Greenwood maybe the eldest surviving sibling,Frances Lelia. I have asked my father about the name Dawbarn and he hasn't any recollection of hearing it, so it looks like this is another new twig for our tree.
