Good Morning

I am new to this group. My name is Suzanne and I am from Geraldton in
Western Australia. I am not sure where to start but I thought that this
would be a point.

Ok here we go.... My grandfather Peter George Parker was born at St Olaves
Home, Exeter 28 July 1924. He was at the age of 5 placed into Barnardos.
He then was transported to Australia as a child migrant. I have an entry
from the admittance book which I got from Barnardos but that is all the
information that they have. On this it tells of relatives.

Mother - Annie Grace Parker, 28
Putative father - Walter Greenslade
Grandmother -(mat) Ellen Parker , Sowton Cottage Dunsford, Devon
Uncles and Aunts (mat):
William Parker, 44, horseman, 5c Millcot, SHoebrook, Crediton, Devon
Ellen Durrant, 46, Comfort Court, Hindnich???, Devon
Elizabeth Jarvis, 34, Howell, ur, Crediton, Devon
Catherine Farley, 26, lives with grandmother

It also tells me that his mother worked for a Mrs Seward, Rock House,
Alphington, Exeter. Aswell as a Mrs Labbett of Crediton for about 7 years.

If anyone could help me that would be great, or lead me in the right
direction.

CHeers
