Thank you to Anne, Nivard, Nan and a special thanks to Jenny whom I have answered off line this morning. Please accept my thanks to anyone I have missed from this list. A new piece to the puzzle came to life yesterday with the discovery of a William Horne, miner with a miners right, on the Victorian Goldfields at Creswick, just north of Ballarat for 1856. (Electoral Roll). "Our" William would have been 22 at that time and certainly old enough to vote. Looks like a bit more digging. Thanks once again for all your help in this "brick wall". Anne
