Interred April 6. Home papers please copy" (meaning he may have been a native of England) - http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28055333 Marriage notice, 30 June 1885, for Octavius Alaric WATTS to Agnes PORTER - http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28362731 There are two possible children on the NSW BMD Index, born to Octavius A. and Agnes WATTS - (1886) Agnes A.

Death Notice in the Sydney Morning Herald, 20 October 1931 - "WATTS - October 19, 1931, at Kensington, Agnes, widow of the late Octavius A. WATTS, and loved mother of Aimee and Edwin. Aged 85 years".
