Hi Cheran
"Hilda" looks to be an abbreviation of Matilda Jane Birkett, born 1892 Dunolly to parents George Birkett and Susan Elizabeth Birkett.
Matilda Jane Birkett married Naylor James Richardson in 1912 then as Matilda Jane Richardson dies in 1931 age 39 in Waggi. Not sure what that abbreviation means, but some other Rootschatter will know.

From the death notice for her father I think Waggi is Wonthaggi.

Thanks Noells...
This has been a big help!! I have her death now as 13 June 1931 and James = 2 October 1941 Castlemaine looks like they have abt 7 children...
The "Al" in the Sussannah death notice is probably william Alfred Drury wife of Esme
I knew I would find my way from this site. Everyone is so helpful!!!! 8) 8)
