Thank you one and all, but it’s the time between 1910 and his demise.

Suffolk / Eli Goerge Farley
« on: Sunday 20 July 25 19:34 BST (UK)  »
Eli was born was born in Wyke near Bradford West Yorkshire in the September Quarter of 1875 (9 6).
On the 6th of October 1900 he married after banns at Helme Parish Church at the age of 23 to Sarah Ellen Jacobs (Spinster) aged 22. However on the 27th of December 1910 Sarah Ellen marries again as Sarah Ellen Jacobs (Spinster) aged 33 to George Brown. Between the two marriages I have up to this point found no further mention of Eli. It wasn't until I found a Eli George Farley's death registered in Bury St Edmonds (4b 1071) in 1954 at the age of 78 which matched with his birth year bar 12 months or so.

If anyone can throw any light on Eli's life between his first marriage and his demise in 1954 I would be most grateful.

Hi Ruskie
That's definitely the man I now got to find if he is still alive and were he is living.

Australia / OLDFIELD Family Queensland

Hi Everyone

I'm needing help in finding a D OLDFIELD who flew from London to Perth 1960's. At the time he was almost 25 years of age and unaccompanied and single. He had recently graduated as a Chemist and was en-route to Melbourne to be employed by Defence Standards Laboratories.It is believed that he may have at some time later married and again later in life moved to Queensland.

Any information however vague would be most appreciated.

Hi Gillian
I think I must now put this leg of the family to bed. I have some 400 plus entries in my family tree and  I need to research closer relatives. However if you do find further information that would bring that leg right into the 21st century it would be most appreciated. I will leave the page open for anyone to see.

Best Regards
Jim

Hi Gillian

I have now updated the information you have given me and you have given me another bone to pick so to speak. Florence Mary Peinke. Where did that name come from? Usually from the parents parents, and did Benson Claude and Joan Marjorie have any children, also did Arthur Charles get married?
Again thank you.

Jim

Hi Gillian,
Thank you for the information. As you say I will have to get in touch with Western Cape Archives for a copy of Watson's Estate file.
I'm very thankful for the information you have given me but I'm now trying to find out more about his offspring Benson and Arthur. In a passenger list of 1924 they are both listed with a initial "C".
I have satisfied myself with his daughter Florence Mary who married, and his son Watson William who passed away in 1918.

Regards
Jim
