It will be good when a m godwin checks back online again with us :)

Perhaps we can then get true clarification of the information already held and the directions hoped for ;)

I think this is the obit another sibling - son of George & Mary Ann - named Edward James.

He died in 1932 and was born in 1872 in 'Stanifer' (assume Stannifer NSW). He is buried at Pallamallawa Cemetery (near Moree).

I suspect the birth reg is the one shown as Jane Edward, 1872, Patricks Plain.
