Dear listers If anyone has access to the Digger CDs, could they please let me know if there is any record of the birth of any children to Vincent PYKE/PIKE and his wife Frances Elizabeth PYKE, on the Bendigo Goldfields between 1853 and 1862? Names to looks out for are Frances Mary and Reginald Arthur in particular I would also be interested to know of there is any record of deaths of any of their children, or of Vincent's mother Mary PYKE, maiden name Candy? I am writing from London, and would appreciate any help with piecing together this family. Kind regards Philip Candy This e-mail is confidential and privileged.

This is all I could find, no marriage and no death of Mary Pyke, Vincents mother. No death is recorded for the children, at least up to 1888.
