Hi Vicki,

http://www.naa.gov.au/default.html

On this site I found a document which may interest you.
It is a service record (ww1) for Oswald Henry Best whose Next of Kin is Jane Emily Best. There is a lovely 46 page digital copy available on line for you to look at .  If he IS your Jane's husband, you will see some family details there as well as the very detailed history of hos war injuries etc.

Go to record search. Search as a guest. type in Jane Best.
See Oswald Henry Best. Click digital copy.
Hope he is a help to you.

Hi again vicki,
On close reading of the above document, there is no doubt it is your family as there is a letter in the file from L. Ager -Lucy-inquiring about Oswald's wounds.( she must have written as 'older sister' and it shows, as you thought, she is not married)  It comes from an address in Strathfield.
Another letter in the file is from Jane and the address is Cornwall Park Grafton.
I found the whole document fascinating and quite moving.
Such a sad little note she wrote to the commanding officer.

Think so,
 Aunt Pat will be getting a lot of questions to-night, 
the family has lost touch with a lot of them this is why I am trying to get this reunion going before all is lost I have a family photo of the Ager in the last 1800

Hi,

If you think it is useful, you can get a full service record for Frederick .  There is a link at top of page I sent.

I can see Frederick's marriage on bdm nsw.

If you can find his children, you might be making real progress!
