Looking for PATTEN..... Arthur Edwin
All I have on my Arthur is that he was a Policeman in Western Australia in the 1860's. I do not know where he is from or when/how he came to Australia. His name appears on my grandfathers birth cert. My grandfather was also called Arthur Edwin but no surname was given on the cert. His mother is Mary Jane Cable, she was housekeeper to A E Patten, she later married a Thomas Ishmael Jones. Thomas raised Arthur as his own and he was raised as a Jones.
If anyone can help me with a connection to my Arthur E Patten, I would be eternally grateful!
Thank You

Dear Karen, Hi there. I wish you well in your research. I've put together the following journal which lists just about every good website I can find on researching your family in Western Australia.

I just had a look at the WA Postal Directories but doesn't seem to be the right timeframe for your Arthur Edwin PATTEN.
Let's see if we can find him. And tell us how you get on. Bye now.
