The Westbury birth register names Benjamin Laws and Ann Ingleson as the parents of John William Laws. He was obviously raised by BG Jones and Ann Jones as John William Jones. His death certificate has him as moving to NSW 1n 1883, living at Glebe in 1918, born at Westbury, father Benjamin Geffey Jones (not Laws), mother Eliza Ann Ingleson. He may well not have known that his real father was Benjamin Laws as BG Jones returned from penal servitude around the time of his birth and was certainly back in the family home by 1867. William's daughter certainly did not know of his uncertain parentage according to to her daughter-in-law Yvonne (in RK's correspondence). John may have moved to Sydney with his mother in the 1880's. He was listed as a carter, 31 Lawson St., Balmain in 1893. This was also where his mother was living, at her death. Living at 50 Talford St. Glebe at his son's WW1 enlistment in 1916. NSW P.O.
