Hi all,
Looking for info on the LAND family from Perth Australia. Stanley Land & his wife Linda Beulah Windle were married in Calcutta in 1945 and settled in Perth around 1946.
I believe they had a daughter (*).
Regards
John Windle

Hi Dazey
Thanks for the info. I was told when Linda died her husband Stanley moved to Jersey in the Channel Isles but can't find what happened to their daughter.
Regards

You might be able to find SKS who will look up the newspapers to see if they was a furneral or death notice that might include family names, the daughter may have married and her married name may be there

Hi Jenn
Was sent this obituary notice but it only states Daughter as Janine.
Thanks for replying

Beulah---Linda--- Windle
Her date of death is 30 May 1980 at Queens Park, Perth. She was cremated and her ashes placed at Karrakatta Cemetery, Crematorium Rose Gardens, Area WO, Site 0286.

Hi Cando,
In the past I was in touch with (*) in Perth but no luck yet getting in touch with him again.
Thanks will try whitepages.

Perhaps a coincidence however the are only two listings with that surname and both have the same initials as mentioned in the notice.

I think (*) is living in Melbourne now. I have some additions and corrections for you on the group we are looking at. Here to begin with is the updated info on Lydia Frazer Bellgard.
Kathleen Lydia Bellgard died 11 February 1939 Calcutta, India. The cause of death was heart failure coupled with pleuro-pnemonia. She was buried the same day from St Thomas' Church, Calcutta. The Curate, Rev. Errol M Kouwen, read the service. Her age was given as 50 years, six months and 20 days. [Source: India Office Collection, British Library, Vol 594, folio 140; LDS Film 533200].

In that case she should not be under discussion in this forum.

Thats excellent work on your part. At least she is not just waiting to be discovered! I will have some more stuff from India via the LDS in a week or so.
