• Notes

  Living in Ansell Street when applying for probate on mother's estate Listed as eldest son I believe that Mark may originally have been known as Mordecai after his great grandfather. In 1851 there is still only a Mark in the family so I believe that he was originally Mordecai. See WIll- Mordecai Capua From Eileen Bird (May 2011) Mark/Mordecai was born I think in 1833/4 would have to dig out info I think he was 21 when he went to Australia was that 1854
