    Exclamation Charles Henry Evans

    My great grandfather, Charles Henry Evans born abt 1852 in Staffordshire,England, shown on marriage certificate and childrens birth certificate as Henry but full name on their marriage certificates, married Eliza Cotterill at Hanley in the district of Stoke upon Trent on 24/2/1973 (marriage certificate shows father's name John (deceased) both John and son were colliers, I cannot find his birth or christening in the UK and nor would you believe can I find his death in NSW. He and wife Eliza came out on 19/7/1879 with four children. Rose A,Henry,Nelly and Catherine.
    I do hope you can help, one of his sons is my Grandfather.
