Yes that was an address. I have a death cert. born 18 june 1884, cook st, glasgow. fater fredrick railway guard, mother bridgert waldie (dorgan). BUT someone has said that this is not him. perhaps they are wrong. He was said to have been 72 when died. If this is him, then what happened from there to here? Thank you for all help. helen-darleen

sorry it was Victoria, Australia

Can you tell us from the death certificate where he is buried?
Did you get Ethe's death certificate as well?
Where was he living when he died?
Jenn

Have not got a Birth cert. for ethel or death cert for both. Ethel born 3.11.1898, died 1.7.1970. Melb.Victoria. Their last address was 4 Henty st, Richmond, Victoria, Australia. They are buried together at BOX HILL cemetery, Box Hill, Vic. Aust.

Well surely if they are buried together in Box Hill, then the death certificate you have is for the right Frederick Waldie, does it list his children's names and are they correct
kind thoughts Jenn

ethel had stacks of kids, some given away to other family and some to welfare, i have only found that the last 2 kids ( Mum one of them) are under his name, (SHOCK TO FAMILY ...I have to laugh). They would not go out together even going and sitting seperatly at church. Mum said they acted as stangers in public. But thankyou as I know where he came from and his parents.
-
Do you need Ethel's parents?
so you are sure now that the death details I have given you and the death certificate you do have indicate that it is the correct Frederick WALDIE?
I shall add this link friom a while ago where Helen appears to have found Frederick Waldie in Scotland
