    Notes 
    • From Debbie Godfrey, March 2016:

      1924 - Thomas R DOUGLAS emigrated to Sydney Australia (1925-1927 spent in New Zealand before returning to Sydney).
      1929 - Jessie M DOUGLAS emigrated to Sydney Australia.

      Debbie comments on Thomas:
      "The marriage certificate is the "Archdeaconry" copy - obviously the age difference was an issue as you'll see they were crossed out and changed to 'full age' *. Also, no info on father's name - from what I've found so far Thomas was creative with the truth (e.g. my grandmother was told he'd married Lady Minto), so may not have wanted to admit to his true parentage (a train driver, not a "gentleman"). A very interesting character!!!"

      * Jessie was some 14 years older than Thomas.
