May I ask please about Thomas .... when did his own marriage seemingly fail .... what year please .... You see, something is simply not making good sense to me ....

earlier in the thread if I recall correctly there was mention of a possible separation for Thomas.

And then via more recent posts we learn that Thomas was with Hannah when Thomas told Wilfred that John was Wilfred's father....

And from the OP we know that Wilfred was usually known as Bob,

and from various indexes we know that Wilfred married as Wilfred and not as Bob,

so when did Wilfred aka Bob actually first learn that his name was not Bob (Robert etc) and was in fact Wilfred Charles?

And why would that be at a different time from when Wilfred learnt from Thomas that John Joseph Everett/Everitt was his birth Dad....

And of course, why did Thomas chose NOT to give up the name of the birth Mum ....

... That is the strangest bit .... To me, it is far more likely that people know the name of the birth Mum, (either through watching her body develop during her pregnancy, or being aware of her absence for around 5 months or more).

So basically I am saying ..... has anyone in the family over the past 25 years actually searched through various family papers specifically looking at any clues as to if he spent any time at all anywhere outside the HOWLONG district in the twelve months except when in the Albury lockup on remand awaiting to be bailed ....
Simply put:
WHERE was John Joseph EVERETT/ITT from when he indecently assaulted Julia CASEY until his death at age 37 ... Cheers, JM
