Searching for information on James and Jane MEEK. James was born 1840 in Norfolk, arrived SA 1853. Married Adelaide 1863, five children born in South Australia and five children born in Victoria (Horsham and Natimuk). Jane died in 1934 at Natimuk, but I can't find where James died! Would love to know what happened to him. I am researching the family for a friend who is descended from their sixth child, George (married Pearl BILLINGHAM - 1903).
