If you have Henry and Jane's marriage certificate for 1882 it should name their parents. This will save research time trying to confirm Henry's parents and siblings.
Gambier on 2015-01-09 05:24:37Many thanks. No I don't yet have the marriage certificate & wasn't aware it would include siblings.
tonkin on 2015-01-09 05:49:20The marriage certificate will not include Henry's siblings, but it will confirm the parents names of bride and groom.
Looking at your other posting Henry's parents were Henry William BURNS and Helen MAY married in South Australia in 1857. I have included their marriage details in your other posting.
From memory Henry and Helen had four or five children in Victoria. I will do a few record searches tomorrow and refresh my memory.
