Hi Jenny, My husband's family of Birtles' married into the RAYNER family in Mullamuddy, Mudgee - Archy Rayner b 1873 married Elizabeth Birtles in Mudgee in 1896 and his sister Lavinia Grace Rayner b 1879 married William Birtles in Mudgee in 1907. Archy & Lavinia Grace's parents were Robert Rayner & Charlotte Edwards, Robert b Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, Eng. The only Thomas Rayner I can find is in 1843 a birth at Broombee, Mudgee to James Rayner & Eliza Calf. This Thomas died in 1888 at Triangle Swamp, also Mudgee and I have no further info on him. James Rayner was born Risby, Suffolk, England. I don't know whether there could be a connection to your Rayner family with so many Rayner's in the Mudgee area. I hope it helps.

Thank you for this. If I can eventually sort out the parents for Thomas Alfred Rayner reportedly born 1915 I am sure I will be able to tie him into the Rayner clan at Mudgee. Unfortunately his marriage in 1942 to Celia Nell Cole is too late to be on the Qld index so I can't get a copy online.
