Probably a minor thing, but ancestry has Justina being baptised in Walthamstow, Essex not Hatfield, Herts

There's a Duncan Tatham coming up on Australian electoral rolls for 1901-1936, but as I don't have ancestry worldwide, I'm afraid that I can't check for you

Hi everyone, and thank you for taking part 

Toni, the Phoebe Tatham mentioned in regard to a divorce is not our Phoebe, I'm afraid (I had found that one a while back) - that one would have been a Tatham by marriage, where ours was born a Tatham, and only ever married to  Mr Brown.  It was, I believe, Phoebe travelling as "Mrs Brown" who accompanied the children back to England - will check my notes again to be doubly sure.

Thank you for that link - thanks also to Lizdb for her one - I hadn't found either of them before!

Oo-er ... second edit  ... the half-uncle Christopher from whom Duncan John inherited money ... was his half-uncle Christopher Tatham (son of surgeon Christopher and Elizabeth Gordon Tatham) ... so no connection to the Dunbar estate.

The Duncan Tatham who comes up on the electoral rolls is the right fellow, ... but the entry is a glitch; - I found him via the local Library's Ancestry link.  The date for his voter registration was actually 1856, from memory, so no idea how it found its way in amongst the 1901-1936 rolls 

All your help sincerely appreciated,

Deb

Oh dear, forgot something again 

Yes, Spidermonkey, Justina was baptised at Walthamstowe - I mis-read my (scribbled!) notes and missed a line!

And yes, that's her marriage, found by Toni.  Would love to find a copy of that book on the coins, incidentally; I believe Uncle Christopher Tatham is mentioned in a book about trade medals or something similar, in Ceylon/Sri Lanka.

This is the June 2005 Challenge which we had fun trying to sort. Everyone in anyway connected to The Dunbar Dynasty.

Which one blew up Sydney with the dynamite storehouse.... 
Another came to Sussex, Lancing College.... 

Whatever happened to Claude....

Trust you Lesanne to find something blowing up.......

This seems to be one namer and what we can find Deb has already found on the internet so i dont know how to help.

I'm afraid I'm not being much use either.  The only thing that occured to me that Deb might not have looked at is Duncan Tatham on the 1911 census.  I had a quick look but no one leapt out.  But equally there is no likely deaths for Duncan between landing in Bristol in 1910 and the 1911 census so perhaps he is on the census

re the 1911 census is it completely online yet?
