your email address has been removed so makes it hard.My mother was born Marleen but name was changed when she was adopted. I know the next female born was Marleen also. i don't want to put too much on here as my mother was a very private person. It looks like we can PM each other but I need do do 3 postings before I can use this PM thingy and then I have to work it out..and yes I knew that Mum had a sister Valma

Hi Jack . My mother came from Pt Lincoln also. Her parents were Mary Alice Maud Golley and Victor Vaino Haapanen.  He was also a friend of Axel Stenross and arrived in Pt Lincoln in 1922 on the 'Port Caladonia'.
family rumour says that Mary had quite a reputation for 'playing up' -possibly even with Axel. The large Golley clan married into the Danzic, Berryman, Waters, Kean, Bascombe and Lindquist familys

My great Aunt Myra Ethel Ann Golley (1902-1957) who lived and died in Port Lincoln South Australia, married a Gus Linquist.
There-in lies my dilemma.
All I can find is an Ernest Gustaf Ferdinand Linquist who died on 7 Nov 1955 in South Australia. I am hoping this is my "Gus".
I believe there may have been a daughter named Lorna Linquist.
Any help please?
Would love to hear form you Terri, My mother's maternal mother was Mary Alice Maud Golley but I have not been able to name her father. I know it was not Victor. She was born in 1939 and died in 1996. She visited Pt Lincoln when her paternal mother passed away but I don't believe she found any answers. I had the name Axel Stenross as a lead ( not from my mother ). You are obviously a 1/2 cousin and I would love to hear from you   Regards Wendy
