I am looking for any information regarding any decendants of my 1st cousin once removed, Thomas William Hughes. I only have an approximate birth date of 1925 for Thomas William as most of the Australian birth records I have access to stop at 1922. He appears as the informant on the death certificates for both of his parents
His father was Thomas George Hughes who was born on 5 Apr 1896 at Dover, Kent, England. He comes to Melbourne in 1914 as a farm student and marries a Tasmanian girl, Anna Mary Freeman, in 1921 at St. Phillips, Victoria and dies at Alfred Hospital, Mebourne on 18 May 1961.
Thomas George appears in the Melbourne business directories from 1949 to 1954 and is described as a Primary Producer but of what I have yet to find out. Thomas William is in the same business from 1949 to 1980. From 1949-1954 they are in Diamond Creek, Deakin, Victoria but, after TG dies, from 1961-1980 TW is in Whittlesea.
I am interested to know what they were producing and also if Thomas William Hughes married and, if so, whether there are any children still living. Thomas George Hughes was brother to my grandfather, Sydney Valentine Hughes, and I would dearly love to be able to tell my mother that she still has Hughes cousins still living.
One interesting fact that I have uncovered is that Thomas George Hughes was an Anzac in WW1 with service number 18447 but his service record only lists his fathers name, also Thomas George Hughes.
I hope someone can help.
Many thanks in anticipation.
