Hello! New to this forum, and have been researching my paternal grandmothers' (Phyllis May Lewis) family in the UK.  Phyllis did come to Australia as a child on the Beltana with her mother, step father and most siblings after the end of WW1. Family oral history was that her father Arthur Lewis had served during the war and returned home unwell, before passing away in 1917.  I cannot find any military records to this effect, so perhaps was myth?  I would be pleased know any details of the families life in Broom, Bidford-on-Avon.  My grandmother was very proud of her birthplace.
