Hi,
Iam trying to find anything about Francis Lanfranchi he was born on the 3rd June 1881 St Arnaud Victoria, but can't find anything else on him
Francis was still alive when Bernard and mary parents died.

Well, as you will note in #3 , Frank was likely in WA too.

Possibly still there in 1910.  One F. Lanfranchi praises a health product. Efficacious to miners on the
WA goldfields.

A funeral notice dated 1935 for James O'malley mentions, O'malley, Casey and Hooks. No mention of Lanfranchi so maybe Francis / Frank had left or died by then ??
