Some time later Henry Norris went to live with his son Alfred in Maitland. Alfred was married to Frieda (although she didn't sound too sure of this). This is where Aunty Ruth was really clear (on the first drive, I couldn' say for sure if she'd said Frieda tho'). Mom remembered that Andrew was the eldest child and that there were 2 other boys (can't remember their names) and a charlotte who was one of the younger children.
