    Default W. Australian birth look up

    I wonder if anyone is able to see if there is a Frederick Albert Thatcher b. sometime in the 1890's Western Australia. His father is Ben Thatcher from England and mother is Kate McGibbon from Yorkshire, England. This is all the info we know sorry. Have checked whether parents married in England or whether they were convicts but couldn't come up with anything.

    Thanks.

    I have found a death for a Benjamin Thatcher in 1915 registered at Claremont Western Australia. Unfortunately I could find no births for any Thatcher in West Oz with Benjamin the father. Could not find a marriage for Benjamin in West Oz either.



    I did find information on a Benjamin Thatcher born 1852 in Surrey England married to a Catherine FITZGIBBON born 1856 in County Cork Ireland. Record of a birth to them for Lucy Thatcher in 1878 in Greymouth New Zealand. Catherine died in Wellington NZ in 1885 and Benjamin is supposed to have left NZ for Australia after her death.



    I did find a birth for a Frederick Albert Thatcher June Qtr 1897 in South Stoneham Hampshire England on FreeBDM.



    I think the name coincidences and the Wellington and Australian connections are a bit suspect.



    Hope some of this helps.

    Thanks, my friend is so pleased to get some clues to get started on this. I looked at Hampshire 1901 census and the parents of this one b. 1897 seem to be an Edward and Louisa Thatcher. But I agree this other info is big. I think the Kate McGibbon will be in fact Catherine Fitzgibbon. The fact that there aren't a lot of Benjamin Thatchers and the name Kate McGibbon was based on family here say not written fact. If you have any more info based on what you have already sent that would be awesome!
