Thanks Marie for sending a copy of the landing Doc for Ronald, I always find it amazing that we can see all these docs. |

Joan - the "other" Ronald who died in Australia had the parents John Cousins and Emily Churchill. The same chap also visited Stapleton in Bristol in 1927 with his wife Constance, who he married in 1926 in Australia, and who he was with until his death in 1947. |

Just had a look on Ancestry and there is actually a public tree that has the same information about Ronald's parents, census records, voyages, marriage to Constance and death in 1947 as I have stated. (It doesn't mention Beatrice) |

I have had another look at my Grandma photo album. It looks like my Ronald was in England in 1924 as there aare photos of him at Baugh Farm with his brother. |

MarieCeleste, now that my computer has caught up and I have read all your posts it looks like the marriage to Constance is right. In all the photos she is refered to as Bea, but through experience I realise this doesn't always mean its the first given name. The dates would fit better, 1935 does seem very late. :-) |

Joan - please think about this! You say he's in England in **** 1926 **** and Beatrice appears. That has got to be Constance! |

On this site is the Hambrook school admission register and it gives details of him leaving the school in 1905 and also his date of birth. This will be useful when comparing them. |

Thanks, can't afford membership of Ancestry although I have had a few free fortnights on various emails! Might invest in a months subscription, could pay dividends. |

Joan, Ancestry has a spin-off site called Mundia and it's completely free. |
