Kenneth Matthew Quick is my father William Matthew my Grandfather and Mary Ann Knowles my Grandmother, wasn't aware that there were so many Inglewood's in Australia, thank you for you're reply, have been doing quite a lot of research on the Brownings side they were mostly from Castlemaine area - Fryerscreek now known as Fryerstown. It was a busy gold mining area, campbell creek was the area both William and William senior mined, they both died from related lung disease, my grandfather inherited the mine off his father but in the end was ill and started working for the railways.
