Percy has a service record available

http://www.naa.gov.au/

Parents are listed - along with the addresses I provided above

He was killed in action 

most references are for Mr H and Mrs EJ - his parents. His mother Elizabeth Jane signed for his medal and memorial plaque etc. In 1916 his father Mr H referred to him as "my late only son"

http://www.anzacs.net/GRAVES/Cemeteries/MEMLonePine_N_S.htm

lists him as the son of Henry Haimer RIGBYE and Elizabeth Jane of West Mooreville Burnie Tas - a native of Eaglehawk Victoria

Cheers Kris

Thanks Krisjoint & JM, all the Electoral info ..... bonus. Taaaa.  That now gives me the name for E. E. Ellen (Nell) Elizabeth.

I have her born 1889 and Percy born 1892, but Henry did not marry Elizabeth Lockhart until 1905.

Soooo ...... who was Ellen and Percy's parents? 

I have all the War records and all the Eaglehawk BMDs for the Rigbyes, thanks anyway.
