Wonder if he could be related - maybe too hopeful to think could be a brother I suppose! He married an Eliza Grady in 1880 (she was born about 1860) and had 2 daughters born 1883. His daughter Ellen (Nellie) emigrated to Australia in 1910ish. Thanks for any help possible... Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
