Help! Have now a link to one of my dad's ancestors. Susan frances tripp was born in 1891 in Croydon uk. However, during the years to about 1918, we have nothing apart from her marriage to John Richard Budge Burge in Narromine NSW Australia. She died in 1959 at Wentworth Falls NSW. She is buried in the Wentworth Falls Cemetery to our knowledge. Her son Thomas John Tripp Budge Burge was my grandfather (February 1912 - in England and died October 1977 at Gosford NSW Australia). Hope someone can fill in some info on Susuan's life/personal history.

This is more than I hoped for! Thomas John Tripp (Budge Burge), Susan's infant son, was my grandfather, which fills in the missing link for the family tree. Thank you so much!

You're very welcome.

sellyb, thankyou for your assistance with my search of information on Susan Frances tripp. You mentioned in your correspondence that you may be able to access Joseph Tripp's military records. Are you still able to do that, as it would add to the history as a whole family.
Cheers
