I would hesitate to cross the chap who served time in NSW gaols off any list of possibles.

Ruth married Robert Stevens 18 October 1921 as per NSW BDM online.


......
MINISTER'S DAUGHTER.
The marriage certificate disclosed that the respondent was a native of Bombay, India; that his father was an architect; and that Mrs. Stevens was a native of Brighton, England; and
that her father was a minister. It further disclosed that, at the time of the marriage the husband was a captain.

And the marriage
17344/1921
STEVENS Robert
CLAXTON Ruth
District St Leonards

Born 22 October 1897, Malabar, Bombay India, so likely the chap in NSW Gaols.

Thanks CupofLife,  that eliminates him then from Betty's list.

He had DCM with Bar from his WWI service with Royal Welsh Fusiliers

G'day everyone. Back home. Updated notes. And sent messages to two of the Tree holders via "MyHeritage". I noticed their version of the tree is missing some data, but they may have heard of some stories regarding their grandparents/parents family. Hopefully, a few more than what I've heard. :-\ 
Thank you
Betty

A memory recall. Driving in an area we seldom travel and I remembered a dispariging comment by Dad about a set of dark brown units which looked like the slum units in Johannesburg. So he travelled by that route at some stage. Ta Betty
