My relative John Edwards was born in Llandudno Carnarvonshire North Wales in c 1864.He married an Alma Maria Jones at Barrow-in-Furness Lancashire in 1887.The couple set sail for Queensland in 1890 and that up to now is about all I know about the couple.Any help with their further life would be more than welcome.
