I am Tracing my Grandfather of my mothers side
I have little information but I hope the following may help
His name was William Drake and he was I believe one of seven boys, He married Dorothy Nagle of Sydney some time in the early 1900's . He worked on the warves in Sydney
Ther marriage fell apart but I dont think they ever divorced, William died around 1950, Dorothy around 1952, She is buried at Rockwood Cemetry in Sydney
They had three duaghters Jean (Jessica) Kitty and Gwen
All three girls went to boarding school at Leichardt (when the marriage failed) and Dorothy worked as a barmaid in the hotels of Sydney to support them.
Jean married Leslie James White and had nine children
Patricia, David, Janice Sarah, Keith (me) Leah, Stephanie Carol and Wesley
Kitty married Peter Grey and had 4 children
Forbes, Ian, Diane and Veda
Gwen married a chap called Scott-and they had one child Beverly
Any help appreciated
Best Regards
Keith G WHite
