Hello, I have a William Bede Austin (born 1872) an electrician, who married Mary Kate Holmes in Toxteth Park, Liverpool in 1902. They had a daughter, Patricia Elizabeth in Rosslane, Wexford, Ireland. My interest is in the Holmes connection, but if you think this might be your William then I'd be glad to share any further info. I get.

Welcome to the boards, Sue.

Unfortunately it's 14 years since Jane posted that, and she's not likely to be looking for replies here now.

You can try contacting her via a private message through the GR system - just click on her name at the top of her post.
If she still uses the email address she registered with GR, she'll be notified that there's a message from you.

Whether she receives, reads, or replies to it is another matter!
Good luck!
