« on: Friday 02 May 14 03:38 BST (UK) »I am really curious about the oval 'thing' near his feet below the shrub. Can anyone work out what it is?
Interesting photo.
Could the thing behind his feet, in front of the shrub, be a upturned hat and gloves?

The ACT historical death index can be found at
http://www.ors.act.gov.au/community/births_deaths_and_marriages/historic_death_index
The index gives a registration number of 20000547, a death date of 21 November 1940, and no parental details have been supplied.
Just beaten to the information ... by Neil

The Common Room / Re: Is he a bigamist or is this a n other crazy researcher
« on: Saturday 15 March 14 11:19 GMT (UK) »There's a tree on ancestry with one of my ancestors which shows his death correctly, but which then goes on to find him again on census after he's died and then they marry him off and give him children, all whilst the poor man is dead and buried. I did try to contact them to ask how he could die and then be resurrected a few years later to marry and have children but, not surprisingly, I never got a response.
Better still, did they marry him off and have him having children 100 years before his birth?
