Hi Mariac,
It is far better to be able to see at a glance what is required from the title. If we can see the persons Name (surname in Capitals), Birth/death etc and State in the title, we know if we are likely to be able to assist before we even open the thread. ;)
This can be a busy board - it keeps everything tidy and easy for everyone to follow.

Hi Marie
Have searched the bdm's Vic, NSW, SA, WA and Qld for the birth of Ellen Veronica McENTEE with father Michael - nothing unfortunately.
This may be relevant info -
Marriage
McENTEE Michael 22 years Single Father Thomas McENTEE
WHITFORD Marlan 20 years Single Father Elijah WHITFORD
19 Apr 1885
At the Sacred Heart Church Kadina Dal 143/381
Birth - NSW [have listed again with reg#]
37294/1888
McENTEE Mary E
Father Michael Mother Marlan
District Broken Hill
Birth - SA
McENTEE William Augustin
5 Aug 1893
Father Michael McENTEE Mother Marlan WHITFORD
At Wallaroo Mines Dal 527/428
Births WA
McENTEE Francis
Father Michael Mother Marlan WHITFORD
District Coolgardie Reg#484 1901
McENTEE Irene May
Father Michael Mother Marlan WHITFORD
District Coolgardie Reg# 909 1903
I would say that Ellen's birth was not registered....with the constant moving perhaps it was overlooked.
If she was born at Wallaroo as was her brother William Augustin, then perhaps a search of the Parish registers may find her baptism.
I note are numerous McENTEE marriages in South Australia with father Michael indicating there may have been more unregistered births to this couple other than Ellen Veronica.
Death certs in SA only give number of issue not names.
McENTEE Michael
22 Jul 1932 aged 70 years Married No relative noted.
Lived and died at Colonel Light Gardens. Ade 540/279
However this death certificate in Western Australia should give you the names of their children.
McENTEE Marlan
District Perth Reg#355 1940
Buried at Karrakatta Anglican Cemetery aged 70 years.
There is a photo service on the website. Wonder if the names of her chn are on her headstone ie if there is a headstone.

Brilliant cando :D
Thank you so much for all that information. I did not have any of it.
Yes it certainly looks like Ellen's birth has not been registered. I have her birth as around 1896 so that would obviously be when they were in the mining towns.
Appreciate your help once again

Trying to find a burial record for Michael in SA as that may have a headstone. No joy so far.

Hi Mariac
I am currently researching Marlan McEntee (born around 1910) who was the sister of Ellen Veronica McEntee.
I don't know if you got any further info on Ellen Veronica, however the details I have are:
Ellen Veronica Mcentee
Birth 7 april 1896 in Kadina, South Australia, Australia
Death 17 october 1970 in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
Married a C MacDonald during the period 1917-1927
Hope this helps, and if you want any further info on the family please let me know.
Regards
Bry

Bry may I ask the source of the birth information for Ellen Veronica McENTEE? The birth is not on the birth indexes for the period in South Australia but is on an online tree on a subscription based website.
I notice that Marlan had a child prior to her marriage to Michael McENTEE in 1885.
