NOTE

Elizabeth was born c 1872 at Kentish Town, London & died in 1951. The family were recorded as boarders at 14 Bagot St., (?) Wavertree, Liverpool in the 1901 census.

Looks like Joseph & Elizabeth went to Australia at some stage as they're both recorded in the Australian Electoral Rolls for 1930 & 1936. The family also made a trip back to London on the ship 'Paparoa' in Aug. 1900 according this passenger list. Also see below.

Port of Departure: Wellington, New Zealand Arrival Date: 25 Aug 1900 Port of Arrival: London, England Ports of Voyage: Montevideo Ship Name: Paparoa Search Ship Database: View the 'Paparoa' in the 'Passenger Ships and Images' database Shipping Line: New Zealand Shipping Company Ltd Official Number: 111346

I believe Daisy had a child, Reginald Millyard Cossentine in 1923 but I'm not completely sure. SEE Below.

Because his mother died so young, his Grandfather would have been his next of kin.
