Title: William and Minnie Ottermiller
Post by: staplehouse on Tuesday 17 March 26 02:15 GMT (UK)
was searching through information on Find my Grave and found a William Ottermiller died 18 Nov 1895 age 65 and is  buried in the Gayndah Cemetery, and a Minnie Ottermiller  buried Nov 1885 in the Gayndah cemetery , I have look on BDM and could not find their death listed there, where do I go to find out who their parent's where , I thought that Minnie would be a daughter of Henry Ottermiller but have always been told he never married
wait your response in this
cheers
Tom

Findagrave has Minnie’s burial date as "1882-Nov1885", so could “Minnie” be as follows?:
Wilhelmina Ottermiller, death date 5 Dec 1884, daughter of Henry Ottermiller and Wilhelmina Kreiger
FYI I suspect that she might have been born as Wilhelmina Uttermiller in 1866


PS
Strangely, there is also an 18 Nov 1898 death for a Wilhelmina Ottermillar, daughter of Henrig Ottermillar and Wilhelmina Kreiger …
PPS
I suspect that Wilhelmina d 1998 was actually the mother of Wilhelmina d 1884, as she was 65y: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GTHY-WFV?i=2852

I just realised that there is a 65y old William who dies on 18 Nov 1898: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G922-PQXT?i=264

And then there is the death registration for the previously mentioned Wilhelmina who also dies on 18 Nov 1898 ...


Could it be that William or maybe Wilhelm has lost an "A" (and a few more letters) .... :-)
