    So basically, are you asking if anyone knows if any photos exist of Joseph?
    If so, I would have thought that your best bet would be to trace his Australian descendants and ask them.

    PEANUT:
    You are doing sterling work there, but the way I read Lozjoned's post she already has that information, and more, about Joseph.

    I am an ancestor of Laura Rolph (formerly Bjorklund). Obviously they had no children so Joseph is not part of my tree. However I do have a framed photo of a gentleman I was always told was Laura's second husband. The tricky part is I'm not 100% sure that it's him and even more tricky is that I'm not sure where it is. When I find it I will get on this site and let you know. Maybe there might be writing on the back.Btw, when they were publicans, the hotel's name was The Napoleon at Birdwood. Now The Blumberg.

    Not quite old enough to be an "ancestor", more of a descendant��
