Father-- Thomas Holmes, Mother--Jeanette Hunnisette or Hunnisetti (French),
Brother--Jack?.
Father retired Officer Royal Navy,
Came to Australia possibly 1914-1920,
Married my Father David Edward Ruxton at Albury NSW.
Sadly she died 1962 at Bendigo Victoria,
May possibly have been adopted by Thomas Holmes (my thoughts). The only Thomas Holmes to fall into that time (RN. list) lived at times in Brooke Hall and Morningthorpe Manor of Brooke and Morningthorpe. He was I believe in charge of the the RNLI. During this period he also would have lived on the western side of England.
I am currently researching the Bodice family of Staffordshire, England. What I have found is that the spelling varies. I have found Bodice, Boddice, Boddis & many more variations. I believe that Ann Bodice born approx. 1800-1815 & lived in Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England is my g, g, g, g, great grandmother. My g, g, g, great grandfather Thomas Lloyd seems to be her son. I am trying to confirm this through further research. There wasn't a marriage between Benjamin Lloyd & Ann Bodice. But there was a pregnancy. If you have any information regarding Ann Bodice or her family I would love to hear from you. My name is Becky Poppleton @ sunkistphoto@yahoo.com Thank You
