What great information GeniPEC, really appreciate this - and thank you for clearing up the mystery that Judi wasn't Arthur's daughter, but step-daughter.  Thank you.

Hi DanniK
Apologies for the delay in responding - have been out of the website for some time having taken a break from family tree research.
This is the whole purpose of my researching - as Harold is a first cousin due to the Williams family connection and I'm just trying to bring the research up to date to current times.
Very interested to make contact with you

Hi All,

I have just located a City of South Melbourne Rate Book notice for a Walter North in 1890-1893 - any clues on how I track this gentleman down further?
The name just seems so elusive to find any details!

Thanks

Birth certificate, 1900 -

* Were and when was birth registered?

* What name for informant?

* What occupation for father?

* Place of birth is just Port MacDonnell, or something like an address?

Thanks Wivenhoe, we have ordered a copy of the birth certificate to gather the name of the informant and the father's occupation.  Would be interesting to see if that links up with his occupation of a painter in another comment. 

I guess it's possible that potentially someone living in Adelaide could meet up with someone living at the southern most point of South Australia in those days!  Stranger things have happened!

Family search.org has SA school registers. Henry Norman Williams registered 1906, born Oct 1900 at Port McDonnell and parent given as Matthew Williams. Was this his grandfather who had adopted him? This would explain why he listed his grandparents as his parents on his marriage cert as he may have always known them from a small baby as his parents. Not uncommon for g parents to raise illegitimate chn.
Doesn't really help you with Walter North who seems elusive.

Thank you Shume, yes Matthew was the grandfather as at some point Molly left town and went to live in Melbourne, so Matthew and his wife must have raised Henry.

Australia / Walter North

Hi there,
Hoping to be able to break down a brick wall.  Searching for Walter North, the man named as the father of Henry Norman "Harry" Williams, born in Port MacDonnell, South Australia on 2 October 1900.  Harry's Mum was Elizabeth Marie Florence "Molly" Williams who was also born in Port MacDonnell in Dec 1876 and passed unwed in Fitzroy, Melbourne Feb 1960.  Harry was raised in Port MacDonnell by his maternal grandparents (who were named on his marriage certificate as his parents!)
There is no marriage that I can find of between Walter North and Molly, but there is not a lot of information I can locate anywhere about Walter North.  The only possible piece of information I have found is of a Walter Samuel James North who was a Station Hand and there was a deceased estate notice placed in a gazette in 1936.  Uncertain if this is the same Walter North.
Possibly there may be an indigenous link, but I am not certain how to go about searching, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
With thanks

It is certainly beginning to feel that way!

Is there anyway of knowing when Rachel and Frank married?  Do you think they are from Ireland also as I can't locate them anywhere!

On Elizabeth's marriage certificate, it states that her father's occupation is a SHOEMAKER!
