William Stanley was born at Windsor Castle in 1820. His father was with the music staff (organist) at St Georges Chapel. I cannot find confirmation of Williams birth or of his parents names. William joined the armin in 1832 (age 12?) and came to Australia in 1837. I dont know how he got to Australia. Any assistance or guidance would be appreciated.
Kind regards
Diane Stanley

Hello Diane,
Have you tried contacting the St Georges Chapel Archivist? The address is on their website
http://www.stgeorges-windsor.org/archives/arch_index.asp
You never know, they might have records of ordinary people as well of the famous and of the building.
Regards
Victoria
