Assuming son, Samuel Thomas Davies at 15 yrs old, was living with his parents, then James Richard Davies & family seem to have settled in NSW around 1880

Although from my earlier post James Richard Davies appears to have travelled to Victoria in 1890 for his job.

James Richard Davis and son - in - law Jerusalem Smith.

Thank you to all those who helped trace the two individuals and their families.

James Richard Davies died in Waverley, Sydney on the 16.10.1897.  He is interred in the Waverley Cemetery.

Might anyone be visiting that cemetery and be able to photograph James Davis gravesite?

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

I've just submitted a photo request to FindMyGrave, which will appear on James' memorial if a volunteer fulfils the request.

edit:
wow, Google Maps is getting better by the day. They have done a walk-through of Waverly Cemetery
A photo of the headstone will need to be taken properly, but here is the Google Maps link: bit.ly/3ICiqq2
