The photo is the only 'good' one we have of Albert (that I know of).  Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.  As mentioned previously I'd be interested in knowing what your interest is.  Albert's neices and nephews get together once a year (normally around June/July).  It's my Father's turn to host the get together but it will be here so if there is something you'd like me to ask them let me know - of course they didn't know Albert but there's always a story or two.

Looks like you are tracing the Forrest Family as well - Mary Forrest was my Grandmother.  Let me know if I can help!  I have some information on William.  As far as the Morrow family goes I've been researching them for 30 years so have quite a bit of information.  She (Mary) was married to Edgar.

Just thought of something else you may be interested in although I guess it depends on why you are looking for the information.  It is believed that Albert was one of the last men killed at Gallipoli.  Also he grew up in Dongolocking not Dumbleyung.

Photo of Albert and his brother William.  Albert is the shorter of the two.  You may be interested in the book "Iron in the Fire" which was written by my Grandfather Edgar Morrow (Albert's brother).  The book is about Edgar's experiences during the war - the dedication reads "To my wife, and my parents and in memory of Albert, my brother".  The photo on front of the book is the one I have attached here.

I am the Grandneice of Albert and have some information on him as I am researching the Morrow Family.  If I can assist in your research in any way please let me know.  You can find Alberts service records (which were digitalized when I requested a copy) at http://www.naa.gov.au/ if you do a search.  Best of luck.
