Have sent you a PM with some info about Basil. Are you sure of the name Sydney and his wife? Any idea when they were married and where it took place?

Yes I did,thank you.
I do have records of his parents and siblings but Sydney was always a mystery until I found a record of he and Dianna incoming to Australia in 1938 coming from Durban.

Thought that would be the case otherwise there would be an estate notice for him in South Africa.
