Sth Aust request for RICHARDS

[cristobel]

Hello
I have three brothers born in SA, to William Thomas RICHARDS and wife Jessie

Walter Eric  b 10 April 1990
Harold Ellis b 22 May 1898 and died Nov 1898
Maxwell Ellis b 6 April 1907

I'm wondering if someone could lookup and see if the two surviving brothers married, died etc.  Any details would be appreciated.  Thanks all.
Chris

Hi Chris
Our National Archives site holding service histories shows Maxwell Ellis correlating birth date] b. WAyville SA Next of Kin is KATHELEEN RICHARDS
So  looks like he married a Katheleen [odd spelling]
This history is for WW2
There is also a Eric Walter  [fully digitised], but birthdate and birth place are not yours.

Hello Jenn & Sue
Thanks very much for your help.

I will check the National Archives site for the war records for Maxwell Ellis RICHARDS, Sue. (and also have a peek at Walter Eric)

I have the siblings for William Thomas RICHARDS, Jenn, so now I need some other kind soul to help out with marriages etc.

Many thanks, Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris,

Couldn't see marriages for Walter or Maxwell on the S.A. marriage Index 1917-1937. There was a marriage for one Walter Richards, but age was a few years out.

Hello Magoo,

Thanks magoo.
OK now I'll go on and try to find when they died & where they are buried.  The think the SA death indexes only go up to 1915, so perhaps someone is able to access other information, but I will browse on some cemetery sites and hopefully it will turn up something for me.

Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris,
The other NAA entry for Richards is ACTUALLY
Eric Walter not Walter Eric [see my posting]
 Eerily similar, but just not quite it.  On digitised see
 1889 crossed out to be 1890 .  August not April etc.
