Hi , my grandmother was Hilda Christina mabel irwin. her parents were james Irwin b1866 Carlton, Victoria Australia. and Annie Catherlean Harris b 15 february, born 1866 Longford, Tasmania, and died 13 january 1927 in Prahran, Victoria, Australia.
From oral History, we believe james Irwin was a percussionist in the Melbourne Symphony orchestra, but not proof.
Grandmother Hilda was born on February 1895 in Fitzroy, Victoria and died in Adelaide on February 1981.
In a family Bible it records james Harris of Somersetshire b 1838 as Annie's father.
We were told that Hilda's grandmother was German and her name was christina. and they had an apple orchard near Launceston, Tasmania. Cheers, Glenrobbie

I was having a quick look at things on below earlier this morning (didn't have a lot of time!) thought there must be something about on below...(James Irwin)

https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/search?adv=y

Regarding Henry, not sure how you will find his Father, no names for Parents are on Marriage Cert. (image on FMP Tasmania) (Henry age 24, occ. Farmer)

Sarah Buttery (the witness, seemed to be wife of Samuel, and her Death 1914 Longford, age 78 if I remember rightly, it's in newspapers.


Other than that, if you are looking for other Members related, then as Shirley says, you need to use 'Search All Member Trees'.

(a lot of Henry Harris's about, and if it was Somerset, some Baptisms on below, but not much help without name of Father!)
