Hi Helen!
Through her first marriage to William Aspley/Aspey Elliott, which I think you are, too, having such a unique name within the Hardy family!
I have come across some wonderful photos of Vincenzo Fazio on the Great Lakes Museum website, and in fact, read the sad story of his son's death, James Hardy Fazio as a Lighthorseman today on the Virtual War Memorial just yesterday. 19!
So;
My grandmother is Monica Beryl Hardy ("Beryl"),
daughter of James Adolphus Hardy,
son of Mary Ann Elliott (Hardy) Ann Stace's first child.
I could not work out how Ann Stace's life worked: and two days ago I sent away for her marriage certificate only to come across this! haha. So much wonderful information - I am an amateur at best and I am not sure I would have ever put that all together!
Kind regards, Tracy
