X is not for Xavier Curry.
People have been asking me if I would be able to cover the difficult letters eg Q, X, Y and Z in this challenge. Smugly I said I had it all sorted. Well, I was wrong. I had presumed that X would be easy because there are lots of Irish Currys, many of them are Catholic and Xavier is a Catholic name. It seems that Catholic Currys in Australia have not been calling their sons Xavier.
After finding nothing on Trove. I did a Google search and came up with one Xavier Curry (living) so I didn’t pursue him any further. I then tried an Ancestry search limited to Australia. No Xaviers.
The best I can do is a burial record for Jackson Xavier Curry who died in Finley, NSW in 1996.
When I started out on this challenge I aimed to make my posts short and sweet. I have achieved this with X.
I had to do X for AleX so even if you had a second name is at least at the front of the word. Tomorrow I have Young. Another one I know little about. Your Trove ones have been interesting.

I was hoping for an Xavier too, also with no luck! Back to the drawing board.

For some reason many have a short post for X 😉 Glad you could come up with one! Lots of françois-xavier in my corner of the world…. just not in my family!

I would have bet it would be Xavier and that you’d find one easily.

I was lucky. I had Xanthin and Xavier but as they were both living that’s all the mention they got but I could put up a short(very very) post.
