A bit more to ponder over !!!

To start with you need to use NSW BMD to list the children of Percy LORKING who will be the cousins of your Ernest Alfred's children. This will go some way in sorting the confusion.

Yep, just started to do that - finish it later today.
Searching/surfing TROVE at the moment.

Father Walter S   
Mother Catherine  M

Incorrect info.

Not a problem - l will get back to this thread in a couple of days.

Could not wait - found the information while surfing the web - Wikitree - see attach. for starters.

I have added Catherine Maud Barnes to my Alfred Ernest Lorking - birth date and place fits.

l guess Alfred Ernest and Ernest Alfred were cousins

Do you have a death certificate for Catherine LORKING  b. 1911.
Death / funeral notices usually attempt to list children in birth order. The notice for Catherine has Florence, Edith, Daisy but I think the NSW BDM index has Florence, Daisy, Edith.   Are HODSON and BEDFORD placement meant to suggest a birth order, I wonder. Who is the author of this notice....?

I think the certificate might be useful to you.
