Hi All I am looking for information regarding Jenneth Buchannan Coulcher born 18/08/1905 in Singapore, she died in 1976 in Australia. Jenneth was married to Harry Leonard Hosking b.1899 (my great uncle) they had three children that I know of called Peter b. 1931 in Singapore, Patricia b. 1932 in Singapore and William b. 1927 poss in Singapore. I would love to know what happened to the children - I believe that after Harry died they went to Australia where some of Jenneth's extended family lived. If anyone has any information or are researching the same family I would really appreciate any help going. Thanks
:-) :-) :-)

A tree on Ancestry has HArry aged 41, Jenneth aged 34 and Patricia aged 7 on the incoming Passenger lists 1878-1960, address c/o Crown Agents for the Colonies SW1. He is listed as Hospital Secretary and Country of last Permanent Residence is Malaya. Departed Shanghai, China, arrival 26 June 1940, London. The ship was the Aeneas of the Blue Funnel Line official No 131305
Also incoming 1930 - HArry Leonard 31, Jenneth 24 and William Alexander 2. He a Government Servant. Going to 61 Leigham Court Drive, Leigh on Sea, Essex. Port of Departure, Durban South Africa. Arrival 12 MAy 1930 at Southampton. Also called at Cape Town. On the Balmoral CAstle, Union Castle MAilship Co Off No 129074
The tree has William born 1924. Peter 1931 Singapore and Patricia 1932 Singapore. So William's birth year wrong according to age on Incoming Passenger list, unless William 1924 died and another child given same name
Jenneth is given as born 18 Aug 1905 and Death 1906 Box Hill, Victoria
No further info on children. Your tree??

Just found this online - a brother to Jenneth HOSKING nee COULCHER, who died in Western Australia:
Coulcher, Alexander Arthur Birth : 18 OCT 1901 Singapore Death : 4 MAY 1981 Mt Lawley, WA Parents: Father: Coulcher, Arthur Mother: Habekost, Jenneth Amelia Theresa
Family: Marriage: 19 JUL 1927 in Covent Garden, London Spouse: Reese, Leonora Althea Birth : 9 JAN 1902 Singapore Death : 21 OCT 1996 Perth , Western Australia Parents: Father: Reese, Johannes Diedrich Mother: Habekost, Altha Maria
Children: Coulcher, Marjorie Lillian Coulcher, John Birth : 9 MAY 1933 Singapore, Death : 10 MAY 1933 Singapore Coulcher, B** A***
The family arrived in Fremantle on Xmas Day 1940 aboard Charon, from Singapore. Leonora and the two children returned at some point, coming back to Fremantle in Jan 1942.
Their youngest son is married and living in Perth, I can send you the details if you like by PM.
I wonder if Altha & Jenneth HABEKOST were sisters?
