Hi,
Trying to find out more about Edward Willis Wollaston b.1833 in Switzerland, emigrated to Australia in 1849 from London, died 1906 Melbourne, Australia. He was the first Pharmacist in Melbourne in 1850. Parents were Richard James WOLLASTON (or James) a Merchant, and a Mary HAYLOCK.
Despite much searching, cant find them any where on a census or find a reasonable BDM record that ties in with any of the English Wollaston trees!!
Any information or leads much appreciated!!
Cheers, Sue
:-)
