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

Clarice (Bengough) Fleay Fulham, England, United Kingdom Sep 1903

A cousin of my grandmother, Connie Tasker Benning, this part of the Bengough family moved from England to Perth Australia sometime in the early 1900s. For the Tasker family, this photo (and those associated) is something of a mystery. Sarah (Bengough) Bowen Jones' second husband (after her first husband died) was David Jones' (his first wife). Sarah and David had a daughter, Mary Ann Jones Tasker - my great grandmother. 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 Bengough. She had older siblings William and Gladys Bengough. She was married in Perth, Western Australia, in 1927.

I am researching Tasker, Jones, Bowen, Rees of Wales; Kroetch, Chartrand of Canada; and Boggs, Ferguson, Smith, of West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky. Also Steeples of Kansas. And on my mother's New England roots - well, too numerous to name since she descends from Mayflower passengers as well as Dutch East India captains who arrived with their families before the Mayflower landed further north than was planned. :)
I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Director). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in Campbell (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our current Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
