Introduction

A cousin of my grandmother, Connie Tasker Benning, this part of the Bengough family moved from Wales, then England and on to Perth Australia in 1914. Clarice's mother, Ellen Tasker married William Bengough. Ellen's Tasker's brother, William Tasker, married Mary Ann Jones Mary Ann Jones Tasker was the cousin of William Bengough, Clarice's father. There were several Bengough photos left to Mary Ann's daughter, Ethel, when Mary Ann died. Best as we can tell, the Bengough family lived in England (their roots are Welsh) and moved to Australia in the early 1900s. Mary Ann's eldest daughter, Connie (my grandmother) always wanted to go to Australia - and to meet those cousins. She often used to say that she had cousins in Australia, but we knew nothing about them until we found the photos after she died. Clarice (Bengough) Fleay was born to William Bengough and Ellen Tasker. She had older siblings William, Ellen and Gladys Bengough. She was married in Perth, Western Australia, in 1927.

Clarice Bengough Kangaroo hunt in Australia

Snapshot of Clarice Bengough and two friends hunting kangaroos. (1920's or 1930's in Australia - they did that?!)

Back of snapshot states: "me and my friends & a kangaroo we hunt them" Then "Clarice cousin (Nell's daughter)" I think Clarice is the one on the right. Found in the Tasker, Jones, Bengough family album.

Date & Place: Jan in Australia
