From reply #12....

"born in England (about) 1862"


Could this be his birth?


Births Dec 1861

The name of "Brougham" used in 1911 caught my eye.

Just checking to see if John Brougham of Victoria had any "criminal form" since it is hard to change for some

Found this Ironic, A "John Brougham", a carpenter being robbed in 1915 at Ballarat by a young housebreaker he had befriended named John Mitchell (Alias Maxwell)

Hi Whiteout7,

Can you tell us more about John BROUGHAM? Was he in New Zealand, or in Australia?

Have you checked the New Zealand Police Gazettes which are available online at Archway?

It might be best if I cut your post and replies from this topic and create a new one for you on the Australia Board. That way you'll get more views. Shall I do that?
