Photos of William Anthony Cornish (1868-1920)
« on: Saturday 12 April 25 22:28 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am searching for any photos of William Anthony Cornish (1868-1920) of Western Australia who managed Tallering Station during the years around 1910.

He married Katherine Mackenzie & they had 3 sons & 1 daughter Corrie Hay Mackenzie Cornish - who I would also love to see a photo of.

There are a LOT of Cornish men it is this specific William Anthony Cornish I am interested in

Thanks in advance

Don't see any for him but for Corrie there is a wedding photo in the newspaper in 1938

(Plus a writeup)

And another of her as a bridesmaid in 1937:

It appears the state library WA have a collection of photos that includes a photo of the Cornish family circa 1909
