The information came from an Ancestry Family Tree "Key Family Tree by marjkeys." There is a birth record for a Frederick Key at White Hills Victoria with mother & father as above but the only thing that ties them to Frederick Blanchard Keys is the name "Blanchard". The same family tree has Thomas George Key arriving in Melbourne from England in May 1857 aboard the "Norfolk". The records show him married with 3 children prior to that date but they do not appear on the Passenger list for the "Norfolk". Additionaly there are family trees on MyHeritage for the above parents witha whole different lot of children. Thomas married Anne Blanchard on Jul 28, 1850 in Liverpool, Lancashire, England.1 (Anne Blanchard was born C 1830 in Liverpool, Lancashire, England,6 died on Oct 18, 1872 in White Hills, Victoria, Australia 5 and was buried in 1872 in White Hills, Victoria, Australia.)
