Title: HOOPER- post 1940
Post by: tullosboy on Sunday 16 March 08 23:52 GMT (UK)

William John Austin Hooper was born in Bathurst NSW in 1901.

William is my current brick wall ( and has been for some time) Family lore tells that he moved to NZ sometime after the Second world war, never to be seen or heard from again.

Looking for any information on his death or his movement to NZ post 1940.

Thanks

Archives have a few William John Hoopers, but no Austin to make id easier :0

Thanks Althea, I can only surmise there was another family but have no details for them.
