Dear Robin

Our Genes Reunited friends from Australia and New Zealand clock on soon.

I suggest you go back to your original post on the "Trying to FInd" board.

Then edit the thread title to say your ancestors name, year and then add, Australia.

This will gain the attention of GR members in Oz.

Best wishes

Do you have either certificate ?

Do you know what the "W" stands for ?

I have found electoral roll entries in NSW in 1930 & 1936 for....

Thomas Walter Vaughan
Thomas Whitcher Vaughan
Thomas Wilkerson Vaughan

Without knowing his full name I can not tell if any are the correct person.

Researching:
Ablett, Baldwin, Coombe, Daniels, Edkins, Pascoe, Prowse, Seager
