 General Notes:
Alfred is reported to have married to Florence Maud Rogers and had 5 children, John Joseph (Jack) , Fred, Henry James (Jim) , Rose and Raymond. Rose d. 2009, Cowra, NSW, is thought to have married J Beneke and had two children, James and Coral.
It has been reported to me by one of the family that the boys were put into care in Armidale, NSW and that Rose was sent to a Sydney care facility and that the youngest brother may have changed his name after leaving the orphanage.
Recent information has now shown that Alfred was 38 and Florence was 17 at the time of their marriage.
