Thank you Lynette.

Looks like I have lost a boy along the way. I still have a few more records to search so he may turn up.

You are missing Sydney, born 1887 died 1966.

Greetings SeanLarkin.

This may be the birth and death of the Sydney PENGLASE you mean.

BIRTH.
Name: Sydney Richard PENGLASE.
Born: 1887 Stratford, Victoria.
Father: Alfred Felix PENGLASE.
Mother: Mary Ann NANKIVELLE.
Ref: VBI #15376.

DEATH.
Name: Sydney Richard PENGLASE.
Died: 1952 Sale, Victoria.
Age: 64 years.
Father: Alfred Felix PENGLASE.
Mother: Edith Anne TOMKINS.
Ref: VDI #19490.

If this is the correct Sydney it appears the informant named the wrong mother when registering the birth, which happened a lot. There was an Edward PENGLASE and Mary Ann NENKIVELLE in the same area at the time so the informant may have confused the two mother's.

Sydney's mother's name at death is almost correct, but then again informants were often wrong when it came to the mother's name. Wrong names supplied by informants does make confirming events harder for us.

I spent the day searching the records and have updated a few details. Happy to be corrected if I have made any errors.

Cheers.
