Hi Mitchnz,
Welcome to Rootschat from me to .I was delighted when someone told me there was a reply to my Coulter post.
I knew James was married to Maria but had no other information --why he returned and lived with his sister I have no idea .
Grateful for the information about his son I have been researching them most of today and found he married Jemima Clelland on 9th January 1906. He died March 1952 and is buried in Belgian Gardens Townsville.
Are you connected to them ?
Look forward to hearing from you.
