Hi there,
My Grandmother Violet Ann Price was born in Maitland NSW 1904, she married John Alfred Jackson in 1924, and she died 1935 in Sydney NSW. Her parents were Arthur Ernest Price and Violet May Price nee Balser.
My Dad was only 4 or 5 when she died, so doesn't know much about her.
I was hoping someone may have a little more information regarding Violet.
Thankyou
Much appreciated

Hi Jacko,

A quick look through your "latest posts" on Rchat this evening shows the extent of your enquiries about the families Jackson, Shepherd and Price and the good results too.
Perhaps it would be a good idea, just to save duplicate searching, (and the time entailed ) if you were to let us know what in particular you wanted to know or confirm etc.
Linking all your previous posts is a huge time-saver for those who are keen to assist!

Thankyou Sparret
I did start researching a few years back, I'm trying to get back into it.
I do have most of what you have found, I didn't have the info on the accidents, thanks very much for that.
Sorry not clear on what exactly I'm looking for. I was hoping there might be something out there about Violet's life. My Dad didn't really know her, and he passed away 2009. Dad said she died of TB, and remembered visiting her in hospital or asslyum, then he and his brother went in and out of Burnside Boys home.
I guess she died quite young and there's not a lot about her life.
Thankyou again Sparret
Much appreciated
