Hi Sharon,
Thanks for your reply and offer of help.
I am particularly interested in trying to track the career and addresses of William Alexander Gordon, son of Rowland Hill Gordon, who was born in 1859 in Bareilly in India to British parents and emigrated to Australia sometime prior to 1889 since he got married on 25th June that year to Dora Ellen Fosbery, daughter of Edmund Walcott Fosbery, Inspector-General of NSW Police. She died 21.8.1913 at the Jenner Private Hospital, Sydney and is buried in the C of E Cemetery, South Head, Sydney. I'm not sure when WAG died.
They had three daughters and one son and it is he that I'm keen to find out more about. He was Berkeley Edmund Fosbery Gordon, b. 4.5.1905 at 18 Roslyn Street, Sydney. He married Pamela Evelyn Macphillamy [daughter of Keith Macphillamy and Edith Cortis]in the Registry Office, Paddington, NSW in 1936. The marriage was dissolved in 26.5.1947 on his petition. She died 17.1.1951, I've no idea when he died.
I'm hoping that armed with this kind of info that you'll be able to find WAG or BEFG in the Sydney directories.
Thanks again for your help!!
Best regards,
Alistair Gordon
