Hi Sorry, should have included that I suppose ;D Henry Mark Fyfe was born in W.A in 1907. He served in the army and was married first to Ruby Gladys Young in Perth Western Australia. They had 2 boys Arthur and Stanley, after the war he left his family and moved over to Queensland I believe. He married Martha Amelia ??? She had a son called Frank already. They then moved to New Zealand where they both died.
Thanks Pauline

Hi Pauline, :)
  I guess you have seen his digitised war service record http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/scripts/Imagine.asp?B=6458161
  This says he was born 18 Jan 1906 in Perth, Western Australia (and has a photo :)  )

   I found a couple of snippets about him on trove (digitised newspapers) - he was a taxi driver in Perth.
  http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article50343255 and http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article82384174

  Do you know the parents' names?

regards,
   Ros

This seems relevant to the family - A and S FYFE remembering their FYFE nanna's death who died 13 years ago (published in 1949 ...so died c 1936)
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article47660251

Looking at WA BDM http://www.bdm.dotag.wa.gov.au/_apps/pioneersindex/default.aspx for a death of a female FYFE c 1936
FYFE Maude F in Perth 1935 reg # 738

Funeral notice says she was wife of William and mother of Harry and others http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article32878482
Death notice http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article38388849

I'm really just guessing ...   :)  Can you give us any more information please?

regards,
  Ros

Some memoriam notices to Maude Frances FYFE in 1946
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article50338678  one of which mentions daughter-in-law Ruby.

No I'm probably on the wrong track  :(   :-[ This memoriam notice in 1937 says son Roy, daughter-in-law Ruby and grandchildren A and S http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article41299853 

But strangely her funeral notice doesn't mention a son Roy although it does mention a son Harry - was Roy his nickname possibly?

Still speculating here ...

I can't see a birth for a Henry FYFE on WA BDM in 1906-7

However William C FYFE married Maude F LEVI in 1910 in Perth reg# 102

and there is a birth
1906 Henry C M LEVI Perth reg #198

It would be a good idea to purchase Henry's marriage certificate to Ruby to find out his parents' names (if you don't know)

regards,
   Ros

Hi Pauline,
   Are you sure that the grandchildren are deceased?  If not we should not be mentioning their names here.   If not sure hit the modify button and backspace over the names.

The 1936 electoral roll shows this lady living with Henry and Ruby.  Her maiden surname was FYFE, first marriage to Hughie GOODRIDGE in 1936, second marriage to Henry WORSFOLD in 1946.  She was born in Perth in 1914.

Hi Ros, yes I'm sure all grandchildren are dead.
