for a search of some 'events' for him
Married I think in1918 to Isabelle Crossley at Orange. May have died 1966 at Orange, father Charles.

PS I do seem to think that one of our Aussie chatters has the cd for orange cemetery.
If he/she happens to see this post, you may get some cemetery information which will help.
Some others may be able to help with births too.

I have checked the Orange Cemetery cd but no entries for Burren or Rowland
On Worldconnect they are listed in people's trees and the deaths above appear to be the same. If you order their death certs/transcriptions you should get quite a lot of information, including their children's names.
There is a link on the website for transcription agents and this is a cheaper alternative. $15

Catherine Amy Clark (nee Brown). Your post and the replies you received helped me with some info on Rowland and Burren also, thank you.
I have two photo's for you- one of Charles Morphett Brown-1860-your husbands Great Grandfather and the other is of Elizabeth Ann / Ann Elizabeth Munt-1861-1903-your husbands Great Grandmother. I have a Family Tree on My Heritage.com (Kindleyside-Miller Family Tree).
