Thank you for the reply Ding, and that has cleared up a couple of things for us, we had a marriage cert for John Edward and Emily Nicholson which stated John as being previously married but we didn't have any names. You wouldn't have John Edward Bells date and place death Ding?
Ok with John and Emily's children there was definitely Edward John Bell, Ethel Emily Bell (her name is definitely that way around, Ethel Emily Bell), and Norman Lewis Bell, I can confirm Norman through his war records stating Emily as his Mother and John as his Father, I'll keep looking for Myrtle. Norm was Killed in Ypres Belgium WW1, Edward got shot up pretty bad in the 2nd battle of Bullecourt WW1 and was sent back home, he also served in WW2 just in Holsworthy training camp.
Yes Edward John Bell married Jean Edna Rudd, I have them living in Newtown NSW in the early 30's before settling in Helensburgh in 1936, Jean had a daughter Barbara from a previous marriage or affair, they went on to have 4 more children Norm, Heather, John Stanley(my Father) and Maurine. Edward served in both World Wars and Died in 1950, Jean died in November 11 1965 and both are in Woronora cemetery Sutherland.
Ok I sought of get the picture with the Boneham and Nicholson thing, definitely a knot in that branch of the family tree, interesting.
I think I'm getting what your saying Ding about wrong information, bum steers and what not, would be very interested in getting a better picture of the way back stuff.
Regards, John Bell.
