Thanks to my relative Terry Quinane, this is the birth certificate of my great-grandfather Patrick Joseph QUINANE. He was born on Westgarth Dr, Fairfield. The birth certificate helps place Patrick and his family - both his parents were born in Victoria. Patrick served in Gallipoli with the 7th Light Horse AIF in World War 1, where he lost an eye. Following his return he married Irene E Terese PRIESTLY (1899-1987), the only great-grandparent of mine that I knew.
