Thanks Jenn
Any chance of some infor on his father Thomas Potter, and Mother if possible.  I seem to have 2 potter families doing the blend somewhere.  The other members I have is George Herbert Potter and Percy Thomas Potter not sure where they fit.  Thomas Potter was the blacksmith in Whyte Yarcowie during the 1880s, and his son Edgar until 1915.

Hi Evie

I've been on the Rootschat board long enough now that I don't have to keep telling people that I have been doing research for 10 years, so I am just going "head on" with the information I found at the State Library a few days ago.  The following is what I found:-

Unfortuntely I cannot provide children born to Allan and Marjorie because the South Australian birth records stop at 1928.

3. Cecil Luxton aged 67 years of Clarence Gardens died 5th August 1964 at Adelaide, District Adelaide reference book 977 page 5327 symbol 'H' denoting Cecil Luxton died in a hospital.

I intend going into the Library awithin the next week or so, and will look up children to each of the marriges.

I hope the above information is of some interest to you.
