Going by Clive's military records, his next of kin changed at some time. Looks like Mr J Williams, then Eliza is noted.
Her address is 63 Mary Street, Highgate Perth.

Thanks gibbo.

It's all new to me. Didn't know he was in the army.

So Weatherburn is not from a parent but a grandparent.

[gibbo]

This is all so very confusing

George William Tongue's memorial notice has "John and Sarah William's"
Wonder if John had 2 marriages, The 1st been Eliza and then Sarah
