Hi Cando and Rosball,
I really appreciate all the trouble you've gone to in finding that information for me, thank you both.
I said in a pm to rosball that I did search Trove but didn't find anything like you both have done.
I'll follow up those links carefully tomorrow - getting late now.
I might still contact the Narrogin Family History Centre and ask for some information and will definitely
give them all the details I have.
Antoniette was living in Lancashire and to the best of our knowledge she has taken off twice, leaving
her families behind her. We can't find anything on her there after the 1901 UK Census and I think they
must have come to WA in between 1901 and 1909/10.
I'll keep checking, but to further compound the issue, I've found marriage details on a website for Clifford Gerald Matthews in 1938
- parents Thomas MOYAN (Morgan?) Matthews and mother Antoniette Williams! I'm sure this is her, and given her history,
she seems quite devious, if that's the correct word, and given she was much older than Thomas, I'm fairly
positive she would have fibbed about her age to him also.
Given the info about Clifford and his ways, seems as though he is definitely his mother's son! Guess I'll be getting a few more WA
certificates, but you've given me a lot to work with.
Cheers and sincere thanks,
Phil
