This is certainly the family I am interested in. My grandfather was Joe & Eddie's youngest brother Robert (Bob). I also knew their sisters Jennie & Olive. My mother, Mary, was brought up by her aunt Olive who had no children of her own. As a small child I met Eddie & his wife Louie when they toured Europe in 1950s and their sons and respective wives on subsequent trips to UK when they stayed with my parents Mary & Harry Dyson. I knew very little about Joe & Lily Welsh's family but from a few old letters etc passed down to me from Olive & my mother I had pieced together the name of their twins Olive & Thomas. Olive Glenn used to write occasionally to her sisters in law Olive Suddes & Jennie Lamb and send photos of her daughter and her 2 children. In this correspondence there was often mention of a Rose Wintle whom you have confirmed was Thomas's wife. Were Thomas & Rose involved in farming as I have a photo showing Rose working with animals. Did they have any children? The only knowledge I have of John Alan Welsh is 2 photos of him as a baby with Joe & Lily but no indication of who his parents were. You seem to think he was Olive Glenn's son. I don't know whether that is correct or not but I have also seen mention of an Andrew Welsh who I thought was John Alan's brother. Do you have any knowledge of him?. Another mystery to me is a William George Welsh who along with Olive Glenn ( as descendants of Joe Welsh) inherited Joe's share of the estate of his sister Jennie Lamb when she died intestate in Dec 1975. If he was a son of Joe & Lily then he must have been born after they emigrated to Australia in Mar. 1926. Can you help with any of this?
