Ancestry only has what you have. I did search the newspaper though - not good news I am afraid...if you type in Henry HANSSEN into the box provided on the search page, you will see some articles about him and the sons: http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/search?adv=y You can narrow the search by scrolling down the newspapers to Victoria and tick the Victoria box...but other articles show up if you don't tick Victoria ( just checked!!) you could try the boys names individually to see what happens regards Jocelyn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
