Originally built in 1886 as a two story private dwelling, designed by Francis Bird, it was granted a hotel licence later that same year to Robert Stroud. The Grosvenor has been in service as an operating pub ever since, and this makes her one of the oldest pubs still operating in Perth today.

Dear ngaireth

In this journal you mentioned a Mr Keith Henry Clowes marrying a Gabriel Merle 'Gay' Perret in Claremont in 1949.

Would you know if these couple are the parents of the late Paul Henry Clowes and Penelope Clowes (living).

Please any information on this subject would be highly valued.

Thank you
Brian

Dear ngaireth

I have been trying to find Penelope, but to no avail. I heard she is married to a Shane and they live somewhere in Perth, WA. And Gay is in a nursing home, but I don't know which one.

Would you be able to help me please find them.

Paul Henry Clowes is my father whom I never met before his death

I just want to know for sure if the rumors are true that I'm not wanted.

Thank you
