Alison's father was Septimus Hall. Not sure of her Mother's name. Alison's sibs are, 2 brother's, Harrie Lester Hall and William Foy Hall. Both still living and born in Sydney. 1 sister Bernadine, passed away couple of years ago. Alison met David while traveling in UK. They married in Australia 1971 0r 1972. One suburb they lived in was Woolwich. I just can't seem to bring up much, but then again I must admit I am a bit confused about how the UK, Australia, New Zealand all connect and where births marriages, etc are registered. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much
