Hello Paul,
Keeping yourself busy.
Good luck with the Galbraith venture.
I only have one option for you this time.
My George Galbraith born about 1906 in either County's Donegal or Cavan.
Just of the boat from Ireland he got a job as a road worker around the Alexandra Shire, Victoria, Australia. Within a couple of years he married my grandfathers sister.
Not a lot to go on but he left a small footprint on his past for his family.

Cheers
Jack Gee

Hi, Jack.  I am always trying to tie loose ends together.  I am not sure if it is a good hobby or a bad one, but at least is keeps this old man occupied.
Cheers from Osaka, Japan

Thanks Kloumann - If any of George Galbraith has matches with a down under tester we may have a chance.

Cheers
