Hi Everyone Hopefully I am on the right list. Looking for information on a Christian de RINK who settled in different parts of Australia from 1899. According to recent information Christian de RINK b 1871/72 in France settling in Albany and applied for Citizenship in the 1930's " Quote": I was naturalised in Albany in 1930. I had a hotel at the time - the Albany Hotel - and had to naturalized before I could hold a license. I remained in the Albany Hotel 12 months after I was naturalized. I was also employed as an engineer by Sunning Bros. Albany, before I went into the hotel , for 14 months. He also had the Premier Hotel. On his application it mentioned that he was married to a Teresa and she was born in Maitland N.S.W And aged 45 years and now resides at Perth ( dated 14 April 1930) Did he marry in Western Australia? Any information would be most helpful as I am helping my godmother in tracing her birth father history. Regards Frances (NZ)
