Allen Ernest Meek born 1896 in Drybrook. I can find his baptismal but i can't find any other information after that at all.

With hindsight I hope you can see why it was necessary to fill in the gaps to get to and confirm the answer that eluded you :-)

polly58 — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 11:51:58 +0000

I am looking for any information on my grandfathers brothers Allen Ernest Meek born 1896 in Drybrook. I can find his baptismal but i can't find any other information after that at all. Also his elder brother Albert Meek born 1889 again in Drybrook, parents were Geroge and Mary Urina or the other way around Urina Mary Meek.

I know that Albert emigrated to Australia but no idea when.

Can anyone help me please.

Many thanks
