Henry Huston Morgan - lost WW1 Service Medals

Classification: Query
Can anyone please help me find these lost service medals. Henry joined the AIF in March 1915 and was wounded and died on June 28, 1915, Gallipoli. His Service No is 2007. When he died he left behind a daughter Alma Rose born to himself and Alice Steele nee Greenland. The Army stated that his medals were to be held in trust for his daughter but she never received them nor was she ever told who her real father was. Henry was a nephew to John Morgan & Agnes Furlong. The man Alice originally married was Joseph Steele, son of Richard Mayhew Steele & Cecelia Furlong and Joseph was also a nephew of John & Agnes.[Henry joined the Army under the name of Henry Eustace due to family discord]. After the death of her mother Alice in 1923, Alma Rose was raised by John & Mary Greenland. Henry now has a grandson, [my husband], 3 great grandsons, a great great grandson, a great great granddaughter and a great great great grandson. My husband is desperately trying to locate his grandfather's lost medals. Does anyone in the Greenland, Morgan, Lomax families, or anyone else, have any knowledge about where these medals might be today and does anyone know if a photo of Henry exists. Any information would be sincerely appreciated.
Yours in anticipation, Pamelae
