Title: DAVIDSON - Vic
Post by: Magian on Friday 09 October 09 15:54 BST (UK)
I'm trying to trace some relatives and hoping that some Rootschatter out there may recognise the following family and get in touch.

Parents - Donald & Laura Davidson: married 21 November 1897 in South Melbourne
Children -
Donald James Bernard born 1898 Sth Melbourne married Elsie Hetta May Gabbutt 1920. Died 1961 age 63 at Sunbury
John William born 1899 Port Melbourne
Robert Stanley born 1902 Fitzroy and died 1952 Carlton
Leslie Richard born 1906 Carlton and died 1982 Wangaratta

Any help is appreciated.

Are you just hoping for living relatives to read this, or do you want further information on  the family?

For some reason I wasn't alerted to the fact that you had replied to my posting.
In short, both would be nice! I hold loads of information on Donald and his family prior to their move to Australia. Any living relatives may be interested in this.
