1883/3936           Squire    John Strathern Gilmore    Jane   Joseph Thomas   

Hi Janette...

Just a note that the attestation (Image 5) for...

1883/3936 - SQUIRE, John Strathern Gilmore - mother: Jane   father: Joseph Thomas  - d.o.b 3 Feb 1883

...says his father was born in Kent, England. Not sure what that's about.

Note that parts of the record call his father Thomas William SQUIRE but I think they've confused the brother (Thomas William) and the father (Joseph Thomas)
