Hi Carolbea

I see you have had a response from jaild;  she and I corresponded on this family last year. She probably has more info than me, including corroborating paperwork, but if you want to compare notes with me, please email:

I have a thread running on Ancestry.com regarding Mary Brown/Smith/Foote.  Mary, my great grandmother, was a daughter of Henry Brown and Annie Boyd.  I am also having no luck with death notices for Henry or Annie but have been given a huge amount of help through collaborating on Ancestry.com     I have most of the info posted following the initial post but am trying to find more about Mary.  She married my great grandfather Joseph Ambrose Smith in 1895 and when he died in 1897, she married John Foote in 1900.  John Foote died in 1926 and the last I know of Mary is that she was living at Lakes Entrance, Bairnsdale in 1954 but with whom?  Maybe a new husband but nobody left in my family who can tell me. Mary had a son, William Alexander in 1893 (my grandfather) and he claims Joseph Ambrose Smith as his father, but I have no proof of this.  His birth registration does not name a father, though William Alexander claims him as such when he marries my grandmother in 1919.
