Not the information you are seeking however recently I posted in response to a YEING family enquiry, two births to a Henry YEING and Harriett Selina Jessie PONTIN in SA. There was no marriage for this couple on the indexes and the birth registrations were cross referenced to the mother's maiden name.
YEING Harriet Maud Mondnerohey

Hi Cando
Thanks for the info ! I have quite a bit on the Yeings as they also moved to WA. Frayer/Frazier remains elusive.
cheers
pelinoon :D

Would you like to contact the person who is researching the YEING family?
I note that there was a birth and death of a child to this couple in Broken Hill in 1892/93 there was a death of a child in WA in 1897 with later births as well. Harriett is the only FRAYZER enrolled to vote at Hall Street, North Fremantle in 1903 and there are no deaths recorded in Western Australia to 1965. William Andrew FRAYZER does not appear on any online electoral rolls however SA records are not online. The marriage reg gives his father as Andrew.
FRAZIER William 22 years Single Father Andrew FRAZIER
PONTON Harriet Selina Jessie 24 years Widow Father Thomas PONTON
27 Jul 1889
Residence of Joseph Reed, Port Pirie Cla 160/277
Joseph REED could possibly be her step-father.
REED Joseph 46 years Widower Father James REED
PONTON Elizabeth 34 Widow Father James HOOK
12 Dec 1876
At the residence of Robert Smith Wallaroo Dal 109/802
Do you have any further information about Wm after the births of his chn in WA?

Hi Cando
Thanks for your help.
The "family members we weren't told about" were certainly busy little bees who kept the constabulary around Australia on their toes! ;D
