Hi Katherine,
Thank you I will try and get both documents. My mother told me before she died that she had a second cousin in Australia called Flo who had traced the Williams tree back to Welsh Royalty in the 1200s, that is why I am keen to find any relations in Australia, I have got back to 1680 but can't seem to find anymore information.
Thanks again for your help.

Cut & paste the following address
From there you should be able to order the certificate.

I could not find another mention of John Price Williams, no marriage or children born in Qld.

He may have entered Australia via a different state.
each state has its own records and are accessable to different years.

Julie,
Thank you so much, this is my relative. Do you know how I can get a copy of his death certificate.
He was from a farming family and I wonder if Alfred was his son.
John was one of 13 children and all I knew was John vanished after a family problem and all I could find was he died in Australia.
Thanks again for your help.

I hope someone can help me. My mothers uncle John Price Williams was born in1858 in Glamorganshire South Wales U.K. but died in Australia but I can't find out anything else about him. I would like to know why he went to Australia, if he married or had any family and when and where in Australia he died. I hope someone can help.
