Find Ancestors

Trying to find any family of Samuel KING born High Halstow, Kent 1892. Left England with or to follow older brother Charles Gabriel KING. Sam joined Canadian Army in Manitoba towards end of World War 1 and after that is supposed to have gone to Australia. Would love to 'reunite' the family again - 10 siblings and two step-brothers. Parents were Mary Ann SCRIVENER and Samuel KING but name changes may mean that Sam junior could have used the name GRASSBY GRASBY HAMPSON HANSON. Father Samuel had links with Derby and Yorks, mother had links with Bedfordshire. They also spent some time in East End of London. Brother Charles Gabriel died in the Canadian Military Hospital at Shorncliff, Kent May 1918. Any help would be very gratefully accepted.

Found this death, but do not know if he is yours...
Reg.No./Year .. 3057/1938
Name .. KING SAMUEL
Father .. SAMUEL
Mother .. MARY ANN

I did check for marriage (in NSW) for a Samuel & Mary Ann, and did not find one.
If you think that this is a posability, then buy the certificate.
Australian death certificate also list all children & their ages, it should also have his wifes name, how long they were married, where he was born and how long he had been in Aust.
Very informative.
