Thanks for that.
I'm new to chat rooms so hope I'm doing this Ok.

I know the Horace Edwin Russell I am interested in's mother was Elizabeth Brown and his father was also Horace Edwin and they lived in Koroit Victoria.

I was interested to read about the father having a cycle shop as H.E.R was an avid cyclist :)

Hi Sootill
I am descended from Anthony Pollock. From reading the Aussie papers it looks like The cycle shop owner Horace Edwin Pollock went into Bankrupcy.
Can I ask from which Poloock line you are descended please. There is a very large family tree been constructed by several family members.
Regards
Frances

Thanks for such a prompt reply.
I know very little about that side of my family, as my mother and my father's family didn't seem to have much in the way of communication.

my father is Horace Edwin Russell Pollock (always known as Russ) He did come from Koroit in vic. My mother was his second wife. He had one daughter to his first wife, and myself and 2 brothers to his second wife.

He was born in September 1921, I'm pretty sure.

I'm keen to find out more as that is one side of my family i know very little about ::)
