My great grandfather was Angus Saunders and his father was John Saunders. My grandfather was born Richmond, Tasmania and the photo of your Robert Saunders 2nd is identical to the man I and my siblings remember as a child as Angus William Saunders. I cannot reconcile the connection and this is why I am writing this comment in hope that there may be an explanation and link. Juanita
