hi all, well this certainly is hotting up, terri whose wife are you, because i think you are Gregs wife, hopefully i am right. June was married to my uncle Alfie who died on the way home from a funeral(if i am correct) and she has 3 children, 2 girls and greg, one of the girls names is Yvonne. I hope this makes sense to you. yes, my dad was known as "boy". and yes he was Alfie's older brother. then i think aunty Iris and aunty Dulcie and uncle Ronnie, then there was by a second marriage "Gertrude Winifred", gerti as known by my mum i can recall.they had, uncle lesley aunty Vera, i hopefully have not left anyone out.Aunty Vera's daughter is my cousin Donna. i knew that grandad got intered in the war, and i remember my mum saying that all his children were fighting for australia and my grandmother couldn't get any money to live on. Terrible times..at some stage Aunty Alma must of come and lived with the family, cause my dad knew her..he must have because he was calling her name when he was dying...i recall my mum saying that Hannah died of a heart attack, uncle Ronnie was 1 year old..very young..but she had been through 1 hell of a lot in her life..
how did the grave look, the last time i saw it10 years ago ,it was nice and clean, and 1 other thing my grandfather did, was to let a man who had no money when he died to be buried in his plot with Hannah, i don't know his name..
I look forward to this epic journey continuing,
Janette

Hello Teripat, where do i start.. i am the daughter of earlston charles assay, who was the brother of alma daphne. my grandmother was Hannah elizabeth Crane. I have read all your remarks and questions in the rootschat. this was sent to me by Dell Darrach. All i know about my Aunty Alma, was that she was a child born out of wedlock to my japanese grandfather( big NO NO in those days), however they did marry and had lots more children. i was led to believe that my dad was the eldest boy. well living that is , my grandparents had 2 more children older than my dad but they died.. When my dad was dying 13 years ago, i came from new zealand and spent his last 5 days alive with him in hospital. he kept calling to Alma and reaching to the ceiling. i can only think this was his sister who had come to help my dad with his journey beyond..i also did meet a cousin whose mum or grandmother was aunty Alma, he was living in Rockhampton, Queensland, Australia..i can not remember his name..i hope you will stay in touch with me, and we can hopefully find out more of our family..

Janette Assay ( Walsham, married name)
