Family Mary Grace REED, b. Mar Q 1894, Belstone, Devon, England , d. Yes, date unknown Married Sep Q 1912 Plymouth Reg Dist, Devon, England - GRO ref: Hennings, Frederick B [sic] to Reed, Mary G q3 1912 Plymouth RD 5b 576
Despite wrong middle initial I believe this is the entry for this Frederick, as the wife and children (with mother's maiden name Reed) match those emigrating with Fred T in 1924
Five Hennings children found with mother's maiden name of Reed. There was also a marriage in Greenwich of a male Hennings to a female Reed in 1910, but as all the births were in Plymouth and with over a year between each probably all the children of this couple.
Three emigrated with them, two had died in infancy.
The Western Australian birth index shows another son born in Australia; the index when last checked (2021) goes only to 1932, when Mary would have been aged 38, so it is possible there were other children born after this.
