Hoping to catch someone's eye.
Looking for John & Lettisia or Letitia Perrin married in NZ, possible crossed the ditch after 1912 as no deaths have been found here. They had a son George Edgar Perrin who was born in NZ 1909 and would have been with them.
John's father passed away in 1913 and after loosing a son in 1912 they may have felt it was time to move on.
Also Richard Frederick Woodley Perrin sometimes known as Frank missing from 1917. First names may have been reversed as different documents have shown so far. He may have gone with or followed his father John for a new start.

Hi Mackiwi,
This man is a possibility in WA.
Here is his marriage.
PERRIN GEORGE E. @ PERTH reg.130 yr 1933 to SARGENT, MARY M .
Interrment at Karrakatta,
George Edgar PERRIN. 27/10/1957 aged 55 of Mt Lawley sect AA gve. 0347.
Mary Magaret PERRIN. 1/8/1998 aged 98 of West Leederville. Location as above.
The age would seem to be a bit out with the DOB you have given.
Sue.
This on bdm NSW
16379/1924 PERRIN, LETTE 46 YRS REDFERN @ REDFERN
Bit of a longshot, but worth the mention ;D
Was LETTISIA ever called that for short? Is the age about right?
-
Hi Mackwicki,
Douyouknow who John's parents were and what his wife's maiden name was?
This may assist in looking at death indexes etc.

I am bit puzzled about Richard Frederick Woodley PERRIN following his father John as i understood from your post that father John died in 1913. Were Richard F W PERRIN and John brothers? Richard had his wife Amelia had a child in 1908.

Hi all,
I am bit puzzled about Richard Frederick Woodley PERRIN following his father John as i understood from your post that father John died in 1913. CANDO
The DOB's of the 2..... Richard and George Edgar..... make it unlikely they were brothers. I agree with you.
Uncle and nephew is a possiblility as yo suggest.
Sue

Greetings to all my helpers :)
The marriage and internment for George Edgar & Mary Margaret certainly look promising. Worth following up I think.
John's Parents were John Perrin & Elizabeth Herd from Maldon England John Snr remarried after Elizabeth's death.
John Jnr born 1854 Woolwich England married Agnes Preece in 1879 and had the 4 children found by Cando. Richard is a child of this first marrige.John Jnr & Agnes were divorced in 1904.
John remarried to Lettisia Piper in 1905. I found a posting yesterday that has Lettisia's parents as George Piper & Rachel nee Hurrell.
George Edgar is not appearing in the births available yet which if he was born in 1909 the birth may not show up until August, perhaps the age at time of death was an error!!! :-\
George Edgar's brother who died was Thomas Arthur Perrin was only 4 months old ans is buried in Christchurch. Died on the 2nd, buried on the 3rd Sep 1912.
So Richard Frederick Woodley Perrin is their half brother.
Sorry to say I don't know if Lettisia was ever called Letty but it was quite possible I guess amongst family & friends.
I hope I have sorted the confusion I caused and I do appreciate all your suggestions.
Mackiwi :)

I was confused ;) ;D
On the 1925 WA electoral roll George Edgar PERRIN is living with a George and Mary Jane PERRIN at the same address in Perth. The are a number of George PERRIN enlistments in WA from 1901. George Edgar is on the 1936 with a Margaret Mary.

Hi
Am noting a difference in the second given name for Nora on the information above.
Electoral roll has KATHLEEN
Marriage has nothing.
Death and burial have TERESA.
Sue

MMmmmm...
Looks like something went wrong with the Perrin/ Aprilovic marriage.
Here is NORA's death from the Ryerson.
APRILOVIC, Nora Kathleen. Death notice placed 02AUG1975 aged 89 at Revesby, late of Panania in the Sydney Morning Herald .
So she died as Aprilovic and NORA TERESA is another Nora PERRIN.
Also on the Ryerson,
PERRIN George Edgar Death notice place 10AUG1991 aged 81 late of Canterbury in theSydney Morning Herald 13AUG1991
Does have an age at death to fit date of birth given by Mackiwi

Violet Agnes Constance was my aunt so you have that one correct :)
:( Looks like I must eliminate the previous George Edgar
Onwards and upwards to Glebe perhaps

P.S.
O dear Sue, another oops, seems divorce was more common than I ever thought.
Did these people never think that we might be interested in them one day.

This death in 1919 may be the reason for lack of information on ? Lettisia's death in 1924.
You can purchase transcriptions of certificates in NSW from a transcription agent - cheaper and quicker. Results are emailed.

Yes, I do think so too.
on the ww2 enlistment for one of the probable brothers of NORAH Aprilovic,
Paul b. 1918
the next of kin is N. Aprilovic.
And there is this death in NSW
14887/1976 APRILOVIC, PAUL father MARK MARCO mother KATHLEEN NORA
This was in 1941 which is well after the marriage of the other NORA. so perhaps this is the mother.

Paul is buried in the same Lawn Section at Rookwood Catholic as Nora Kathleen APRILOVIC. John Luke APRILOVIC has Marko as NOK...Marko is also buried at Rookwood Catholic.

That's okay it pays to check and double check I really don't mind.
First I was given the information from a relative, then I did a cemetery seach for Christchurch.
I have found several people missing from the NZ BDM historical Index. Newspapers reported deaths and the areas, also births missing.
Had a look at Ryerson Index and have found a John Perrin that matches the 1919 death.late of Enmore
a George Edgar Perrin 1991 late of Canterbury
and a Fred Perrin which is what Granny always referred to him as in her memoirs.late of Concord West
Fred is on my Mums marriage cert as Frederick Richard Perrin ( Labourer)
Army records have occupation as Fisherman
Thought they might all be worth further investigation

The National Archives website holds a digitised copy of the Naturalisation papers for Marko Aprilovic dated 1913.
Among other interesting information , he reveals he is a naturalised subject of New Zealand originally for Austria.!

Looking good,
Sorry I messed up the PR's Sue.
I looked at the Transcription agents mentioned. What do you suggest I ask for to get the information I need.
Re reply on Fred's death notice, if all else fails I am desperate enough to give it a try. However not just yet.
PS Love the way you are all buzzing with suggestions this morning.

Hi Mackiwi.
The agents listed on the website all give reliable and satisfactory service.
Choose one who offers the kind of payment style and return of information medium that suits you.

PS Love the way you are all buzzing with suggestions this morning.
You can only purchase transcriptions for deaths to 1978 and marriages to 1958. The full transcription is abt $17.
If funds allow I would purchase transcriptions for both John and Lette's death. You have the entries from the online index with the registration numbers...all detailed on the thread.
I would very much doubt that is your Fred...the age is way out. If you wish to get the death notice I did mention in a previous post there is a lookup facility on the Ryerson website. Follow the instructions and when the volunteers have located it, it will be emailed to you.
Just my two bob's worth....

Hi,
Noting..
A Joseph and Elizabeth Perrin were producing a number of Childen in NSW between 1853 and 1871.
I do not see a John listed among them which is a positive sign, meaning hopfully, he is not one of thiers, but the one you are seeking.

I wonder if this should be brought to the attention of the NZ BDM Registrar. Surely they can identify periods and districts that have 'gaps' in their data.
If both parents were deceased by 1924, I wonder who cared for their children?

I know this part has been sorted, I am a bit slow in catching up ::)
But the Perrin's in Deniliquin link to my Simpson line. I have a few details on this Perrin family.
The above Norah is Norah Teresa Keogh who married Alfred Ernest Perrin in 1887. Alfred Ernest Perrin was born in 1866, his parents were Mark Perrin and Marrianne Jones.
It appears this Perrin line may originally be from Gloucestershire UK.
If you need anything on this line just send me a pm.

From Ryerson Nancy Perrin not mine, wrong husband. :(

Hi Mackiwi, I have just come across your posts re John Perrin and would be interested in exchanging information - currently working on the family line descended from Mabel Mary Maria Perrin (b. 1885) who married:
1) Thomas John Allan (Wellington 1903)
2) Herbert Walter Jones (Sydney 1921)
Mabel died in Sydney in 1952.
Steve (Sydney)
-
Hi Steve, Welcome to the tree. :) As you have probably worked out I descend from Mabel's brother Frederick, how can I help?
I have traced the Perrins back to William Perrin & Frances Woodley in Marldon, Kent, 1827 at the time of John W Perrins birth.
I wondered why I hadn't been able to find a death for Mabel, a second marriage and a new country explains it. I look forward to exchanging info with you.

Hi
New at this game, first time on forum..hope I do not break any protocols.. noticed you have looked up naturalisation for Aprilovic Marko is this online by any chance if not, how would I gain the info...live in sunny Qld

Thank you very much for that! Yes the more information the merrier! Mary Ann Garnoch?

Hi there,
Well, as gently as possible, RChat is not the about searching for living people. But there's some good advice re such searchings from one of our former Global moderators on the following live link.
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=368728.0 See Reply # 2 which starts out :
" RootsChat - Our Policy on Living Persons.

Found this snippet about John and Elizabeth Perrin of Kaiapoi, however from your posts you say John and Agnes Perrin so perhaps this is James and Elizabeth.
STAR, ISSUE 7149, 13 JULY 1901. SUDDEN DEATH.
Mrs Perrin, wife of Mr John Perrin and an old identity of Kaiapoi, died suddenly at about nine o'clock yesterday evening. She had eaten a hearty mead at tea-time. An inquest is being held this afternoon. The deceased had been a resident of Kaiapoi for over forty years, and was much respected by, every one. For some years she conducted a nursing home on her own account, and many serious cases have passed through her hands. Her husband', Mr John Perrin, is an old Crimean veteran, and was presented to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cornwall and York at the Hagley Park review on June. 24;
Also another John of Kaiapoi: PERRIN.— STAR, ISSUE 10843, 9 AUGUST 1913. August 9, at Ranfurly Street, Kaiapoi, John, dearly beloved husband of Sarah Ann Perrin; aged eighty-six years".
-
Hi, John Perrin was my Great Great grandfather, after his wife Elizabeth passed away he remarried. so both of those are correct and I had found them.
The missing Frederick Richard Woodley Perrin also known as Frank, was Johns Grandson to John jnr
Fred as he was often called was my Grandfather. It is not known what happened to him after about 1924. He may have gone to Australia to his father who had moved there with his second wife.
James Perrin was his brother married to an Elizabeth also.
Thank you for passing on the information, it could have been something I had missed.
