The 1901 census for that address has Thomas & Mary Cotgreave with stepsons Harry & Joseph Clarke. These could be brothers and mother of Alfred,maybe.

G'day Alice,
Thank you for that info, as it looks as though the Cotgreave name is a name to follow, should be able to pick on Ancestry, also of interest is Sidney Ash, son of Joseph Ash is who was in possession of the medal here in OZ, so I was not sure if family brought it out, or had been sent out.
I can be contacted at keith.y#flexinet.com.au (note replace # with @)
Again Many Thanks Keith

Hi! Again Alice,
I found 2 Ancestry trees with Thomas Cotgreave & Mary,
Ancestry:
clarke Family Tree mavis584
Ashe 4 mjfssmpa
But I cant see in either the text you stated, could you let me know it was either of these 2 or would there be another.
Regards Keith
