Thank You for your trouble ,I am not sure any of them is him as he was a Carpenter all his working life...such a common name makes it difficult.

Sue

Edit
I am checking electoral rolls here in OZ just incase he came before 1911.
No luck here either.

Thanks Flick/Glitter Baby

I do have Ancestry and I have searched there for travel info and I come up with so many,it is hard to know the correct person.

My Mother in Law (Alfreds 92 yr old Dau) says he left the Uk from Ireland but I see no sign of that .
He died when she was 5yrs old ,she has no photos and does not remember what he looks like .

Not at the moment finding a match in 1911

See from 1901 that his occupation is carpenter which is not helping with a match either

Hi
I wonder if I can get some help finding this person in 1911.

We know he came to Australia before 1918 as I have his marriage cert and Birth Cert .
Father Edward
Mother Annie

Alfred was born in Long Lake Tettenall Stafford on the 12 th Dec 1881.
He married 1918 in Western Australia, he was a carpenter by Trade.

I would dearly like to find details of when he came to OZ.

Can anyone help ,I am not sure if he was still around the UK in 1911.

Thankyou
Sue
