Hi all!

Francis (Frank) Highmore DEAN died in Robinvale, I think pre 1988. From his service detail on NAA I understand he was born in Mildura. His NOK was Sylvia Dean.

I am really keen to trace the significance of his middle name.

Help to find the names of his parents and grandparents would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Elsie

Hello Elsie,

It seems that the connection for the name 'Highmore' might come from
his mother Emily Sherring's family.

A death from Vic BDM
Samuel James Highmore Sherring d 1950 Mildura Age 95
Father - Samuel Highmore Sherring  Mother Unknown

You may have this already:

I see Samuel in the 1861 census (indexed as Samuel J H SHERLING) living in Silton Dorset with his aunt Charlotte Stone b abt 1842 in Silton, unmarried, linen weaver.

I think he is listed as Highmore SHERRING in 1871 living in Gillingham, Dorset with George Fricker, butcher, wife Christiana Fricker, b abt 1832 in Silton, Dorset and their children ages 8 - 13.  Highmore SHERRING is listed as 'wife's son'

I cannot see him in 1881.

In 1861 Emily SHERRING is with her parents, John and Elizabeth and sister Blanch in Great Faringdon, Oxfordshire.
In 1871 (mistranscribed as SHERVEY) she is a boarder at Linden House, St Mary, Reading ('Ladies school')
In 1881 she is governess to the Swabey family in Great Faringdon, living at the Vicarage - Mr Swabey is the curate.
She is not in later censuses.

Cheers, Judith
