Henry SOUTHERN, b1873 in Hindley, LAN and his wife Hannah (nee DERBYSHIRE)
b1873 in Crook, DUR had 14 children, most of whom appear to have been born in County Durham.
One son was William SOUTHERN, b1910 in West Howie, DUR. William died in
1989 in Busselton, Western Australia. William appears to be the only one in his family to have migrated to Australia, arriving some time in the 1920's.
I'd be interested to contact anyone researching this family.
