Hi Andy, My first guess was the V probably stood for Valentine, if he was born on Valentine's Day. Nothing in the Qld BMD's with the parents' names you provided, thanks for that info. NSW has nothing with the parents' names, but a number of deaths for John ROGERS with parents unknown.

Hi Trish It looks as though Gary will never find out unless John married without the 'v' and any descendents are researching as well. Gary - might be worth joining a couple of the Aussie Rootsweb lists and putting everything together in the hope that someone may have details on the other side of the coin, as it were.
