Hi

I have been looking up the O'Shanassy family as they are related to us.  I found the marriage of Michael and Flora on the Victorian justice department website I have looked at all the other O'Shanassy listings for marriages 57 of them and only 1 shows a Margaret O'Shanassy but she was marrying a William King in 1860.

You can search the records and it will come up with how matching items it finds.  To view each result page is .99c which gives you the basic info.  If you want to view an image or buy a certificate it costs $17.50.  Here is their website if you want it.

Hello may I also take advantage of your very kind offer for a look up ,I have been researching my mothers cousin who emigrated to Geelong in 1914 he enlisted for world war one and was killed 1918 in France and received posthumously the Victoria Cross, now amongst his papers there is a letter from a  Mrs C Symon's ,133 Hope Street,Geelong ,inquiring of his well being, to his commanding officer, what I don,t know but want to know is ,who is she ,What was she to him ,etc etc, his name was Robert Matthew Beatham born 1895 Many thanks for your time and help, Tsumi

Hi Tsumi

There is a possible Symons family living in Geelong during WW1. 
Charles Henry SYMONS and his wife Elizabeth Ann MORGAN.  As in those days the wife was usually addressed using the husband's initial.  It could possibly be the family your seeking.

I saw your offer to do some South Australian Look ups.

I am searching for the death of a Charles Neal born England Hampshire about 1845 I think he may have travelled to South Australia sometime in 1875 as his first child Louisa Elizabeth Adelaide Neal was born in Portsea Hants in the July/August/September period of 1875

He must have died by the end of 1877 as his widow Louisa Jane Neal remarried a Charles John Greenfield sometime in 1877 in New South Wales.

If you could check it would be appreciated.

Hi Sue,
Checked deaths between 1872 & 1878 for Charles NEAL / NEALE.
No death listed in NSW, sorry.
