This is directed mainly to readers in New South Wales , Australia, I am trying to find information on France's Herbert Robinson, he was born in wells next the sea. Norfolk UK, in a bout 1880. he may have spent some time in the North Leeds area of Yorkshire, it appears he became a mining contractor, and may have travelled to Australia to follow that trade! On the21/3/1916. he enlisted into the Australian Army, at the R A S grounds Victoria Barracks N S W, at the age of 33, he was medically discharged on the 4/4/1919 suffering from septic leg and gas inhalation. He was nut married at this time, but I believe he stayed in Australia and married. He had quite an extended family in the UK my grandmother being his youngest sister, their father's name was Henry and the mother's name was Melinda, Mary, Ann Robinson. if anyone out there could help me I be most grateful. P V Robinson.
