Thanks so much for that insight Debra.
Yes I am certain Frank and Harry are 2 completely different men. I will look through the avenues you suggested here and see if I can make some headway with it. I have purchased a number of records/certificates lately - especially those of Harry and Bessie's children.
I have purchased the record of death C679 to see if it will give any more hints as to if that is him or not. - It shows H. A. Avenell certified in writing and as his stepfather.Parents listed as Charles Bryan & Sohpie Sachau/Sachan. His age though does not quite fit. His death is listed as Jan 1926 age 45 yrs.
The record I have for the twin children of Harry Bryan stated he was 33 in 1912. This is only a 2 year difference but something that makes me not be 100% certain it is the right person. I will be adding this information though as a possibility and alternate information while I look deeper in to it. There are also no children listed, living or deceased.
I will update if I find definite links.
Kind Regards
Helen Price
