Hi Richie: Would it be possible to view Lewis Hambley's death certificate? Perhaps it gives how many years in West Australia (or wherever he died) and if from another state, how many years in that state or Australia in general. For example, several of my Victorian folks arrived and lived for a time in New South Wales, so their death certs say xx years in NSW and xx years in Vic. (xx being the number of years). Just a thought. Glenys (keeping my dog out of the wind!)

Ritchie, Have you checked for any details on the WAGS Arrivals CD for that timeframe (1896-1926 from memory)? In most cases the details on the CD for arrivals into Aus (Freemantle) are very sparse and sometimes only Mr or Mrs ******* , age, name of ship, whether British or Foreign.
