I can see two children born to Harry and Lydia in South Australia, but they are different names. One is Walter Fredrick Tondut born 8th August 1912 at Pt Pirie, ref = Cla 892/389; the other may still be living so I can't post the details here. If you would like them, please send me a PM and I'll get them to you.

Good evening to anyone researching the Tondut family in Western and South Australia. Does anyone have any information on William Henry Tondut and his wife Lucy Bell. I have a copy of the marriage certificate of Harry Tondut to Lydia Currell in 1904, showing William and Lucy as his parents. However I have been unable to trace any references to this couple. Their son was married in Greenbushes WA, but there seems to have been a fair amount of travel between WA and SA so they could have originated from either place.

I have an inscription on a h/stone. Could be a relative to your William.
