Immigration - Harry BILLINGHURST

[forestcity38]

Hi again: I thank you for all you have given me.I know that Strephon C. Billinghurst had the name of Florence Billinghurst as next of kin on his service records. Would this be his wife, and if so did they remain married. Came across a death for a Florence.I had found Phyllis's teaching records. Figured she married  then. If you have time I certainly would like to have the records. As for the Hobart  one I don't think they are connected to "My Family" The James Billinghurst that was a policeman was, but I am sure he went back to England.

By the way I did check to see if If there were and BMDs listed for James when I found him mentioned in the Police Gazette, but saw nothing so good to know he went back to England.
