Title: HERSEY deaths SA after 1915 - *COMPLETED*
Post by: SASHAR on Monday 26 March 12 08:54 BST (UK)
Needing help with the following HERSEY deaths in SA after 1915:-

Hilda/Hylda - died 1953 - (born 1894)
Alexander John - died 1960 - (birth unknown)
Lorna - death unknown - (born 1917) - she is not mentioned on TROVE when her mother Hilda dies in 1953 so suspect she may have died before that date.

Thankyou,
Sashar

Yes, I did look there Leanne but on searching again I found Lorna died 1918.

I'm interested in place of death, last residence etc if someone can help.

Kind Regards,
Sashar
