Linda,  Maybe this site would have photos of the ones you are looking for?

or you could try a google search for (world war one soldiers western australia)

Thanks for the suggestion Elizabeth.  I found photographs of a couple of members on the site you suggested and I also found a photograph of a member on the NSW State Library collection NSW servicemen portraits by putting the name into Trove.  So I guess it is just a case of trying anything.  I will also have to find out what I have to do to get permission to use them in any future publication.

Thanks again, Linda

Linda,  It is a bit difficult to find the contact address on this site but if you go to this page right at the bottom

there is a contact name & address

You need permission to use any photos from this site - what a wonderful resource it is
