Thanks wivenhoe.

As mentioned in original post, all those records already viewed, but they do not help

Thanks again Lu.

I like the expression "various irregularities of conduct on his part"

There is an Alban D WELLS in the 1891 census on Edgecliffe Rd, Sydney. There are 4 males and 4 females in the household.

Thanks maddys52, that's really interesting.

I found the image, but what a shame they do not give any names for the other seven occupants !!!

Unfortunately that's the Australian census!

There is also this item in June 1891 - not quite sure what it means - A D WELLS (NZ) ironmonger, importing 20 cs nails. Fits with his occupation in NZ

Modified to add:
Also in trouble for behaving riotously in 1892

Thanks again, I'd looked for his parents names on that Attestation but overlooked their place of birth 

That fits for Alban (England) and Agnes (Australia) being his parents.

Not sure if this is Seems to be the father in NZ - Canterbury address - in 1890  ??

1890 - Canterbury - Heathcote roll

WELLS - Allan Douglas - Wilson's Road - ironmonger (Residential qualification)

and ... in Wellington - 1899 Wellington Roll

WELLS - Allan Douglas - Nairn Street - occ:  ironmonger

Thanks Lu and maddys52.

Yes Alban is shown as an ironmonger on several records.
