Hello,
Not sure if you have read the post through from the start or not?
My Grandfather, Harry Powis, English born, but served in the AIF, then went back after the war and lived in Australia with no contact at all with his British family through no fault of his own.
I had managed to track his life down while he was in Australia after the war, and it seems that he spent a lot of his life living with Arthur Henry and his family.
I think that they were even responsible for seeing that he had a burial and grave too when he died in Melbourne.
I was just hoping that someone from that family might have had knowledge of him, even pictures, of his life etc.
I just find it so sad that he went back to Australia thinking his wife and family were going to go back later, but of course they never did, they all grew up thinking
he had died.(Well his children anyway)
Have put a link to a more in depth history of you're interested.

I would love to be able to get hold of a photo of his grave, and get some flowers laid on it, then I'd feel that the circle was (partly ) closed, and he would know that some of his family think about him, even though we might never have met him.
