My Paternal Grandparents Herbert and Kathleen , he died 4months before I was born but Gan died in 1985 at Nazareth House in Turramurra.
He was seventh generation  Australian and she was an English girl who had migrated with her family to New Zealand when she was seventeen.After they married they lived in Christchurch where their three children were born but came back to Australia in 1932.
As I am the oldest Grandchild in the family he died not knowing any of us (only five) , their only daughter Joan (who owned this locket) died in Sydney in 1942 after being hit by a tram, my Uncle died in Brisbane in the 70's and my Father Iain Donald Hay McDougall died in Townsville in 2000.
