I have DNA with Cecily Joan nee' Crombe / Crombie
and would love to know where she lived,
and her parents names and birth dates PLEASE!! What is her siblings names... what is her Heritage??
Absolutely nothing comes up in any searches, CAN YOU help me??
Cecily Joan Crombie

She was co habited in Albury NSW with my cousin Ray SAVIGE (Born Oakleigh. Vic.) I understand I would have DNA with my cousin, but it amazed me to see DNA with his wife showed up... But I just cannot find her heritage.

Hi Lynda,
Are you taking your above information from the online tree at Ancestry which gives similar details?
If so, please be aware it may not be correct.
What do you know from your own family stories or facts.?

RICHARDS Cecily Joan funeral notice 15 Nov 1995 The Age (Melbourne) 14Nov 1995
What is the source of the information you are giving to the forum?.

When Andrew James CROMBIE died May 23 1960, his death notice in The Age states he is the father o of Jean Mrs SAVIGE (SAVAGE). Seems Cecily was known as Jean.
He died at Barnham where the electoral rolls show he had lived since at least 1930 with his wife.

Hi Sparret, Thank you so much for getting back to me. The only story I know is from childhood and dads words.... The B and D I have came from the larger Family historian Walter Savige.
But no one knows her before she was born. the parents names... is what I am looking for.
RICHARDS Cecily Joan funeral notice 15 Nov 1995 The Age (Melbourne) 14Nov 1995
Thank you so much... Much effort and ponderings.... for you trying BUT she died as a Holt in Narrabri NSW
I am wanting her parents and siblings but it seems to no avail.
And Thanks Sparret that must be her parents as she was born in Barham and Koondrook is the town beside it!!! THANKS
I will now see where that leads me... Thank you BOTH... Lynda xx

Hi Lynda,
We are all glad to help.
I can see that the information you are giving on this forum is the same as that on the online tree.
If you have no concrete information of your own, how do you know the woman dying in Narribri is the correct person?
Certified information would be difficult to access, but can you share please how you are convinced it is correct?

I wonder if the names included in this Death Notice for Isabelle CROMBIE are a little more accurate than in her husband's.

When James Andrew CROMBIE enlisted in the WW2 forces, he made himself younger by about 10 years ;D.
Search by his name here.

Just looking at the funeral notice for the brother Maxwell Russell CROMBIE.
Interesting to note some of the CROMBIE's and the SAVIGE's both belonged to the same religious community.
I don't know why there was an inquest.

Hi
My name is Darryl Crombie-Stewart and I have some information for you regarding Cecilia Joan Crombie. Cecilia is my mothers younger sister. My mothers name is Wanda Merle Crombie and unfortunely, she passed away in 1988 in Victoria. There was also a brother called Maxwell, but he died, I believe in a car accident near Barham in 1962. Their parents name were Andrew Crombie and Isbella Crombie (nee Russell). Andrew died in 1960 and is buried in the Koondrook cemetery. I attended the funeral with my mother and siblings. Isbella passed not long after Andrew and is also buried in Koondrook cemetery. We stayed with Aunty Joan and Uncle Ray Savage for awhile after the funeral. Ray back then, had a ford customline sedan. Hope this helps and look forward to speaking with you soon.
