It is important to be faithful to the way you see information recorded, and that you are giving a forum to use.

The children are registered at birth, WA, as COLE, not COLES.

Rose and Fred, census 1901, are COLE not COLES.

If these children were separated early in life it is possible there would be a variation in how they spell their name.

William Henry in the Coventry and Warwickshire Hospital........can you locate that more clearly please...I am not seeing it. How is he named....age, birthplace.

Frederick George's military record....how is mother named.....Mrs COLES. Mrs Ellen COLES, Mrs E COLES.....what......exactly as recorded please.

What was  Frederick George's address at enlistment.....same as for mother?

Is there an address for him when he is discharged?

Who are the witnesses on his marriage certificate?

They went to Australia, 1886..........so, no children for five years, then three children in seven years?

"...I found Frederick and Ellen travelling to Australia in 1886 ..."
How do you see them named on the "Elderslie".......exactly as you see the names please.

You need to see the 1896 birth certificate.

This looks like Rose on the last census

Hi, I cannot believe I’ve found this thread. I’ve been searching for information on my Grandfather Fredrick G Coles for years. I had painted a Remembrance memorial to go into an art exhibition for him and suddenly thought I wonder if Ellen did move back to Coventry after his father died on the way back to England.  My father always thought she stayed behind in Australia. I did have info from Australia archives on where his father worked on the railways IN Albany. I also had old photos of his brothers (children I think)who moved to near Swansea.

My father was always told, they were born in Plantagenet WA near Albany, Ellen left his father. The father decided to return to England with the 3 children but died on the boat. When they reached England that must have been the mix up in Surnames as we are Coles, but should have been registered on return as Cole. My father never knew Ellen had returned to England. I remember visiting Rose as a child in Coventry.
