WHEELER - BDM Qld
« on: Tuesday 27 March 07 22:46 BST (UK) »
Please can some kind sole help me with this family. I've chased them back to Sydney Alfred WHEELER born 1884 Queensland. I know he had two siblings ... James WHEELER & Martha WHEELER.
I'm hoping for birth dates, parents names ..... all and anything would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Lynn

hello  there

Now I  couldn't find a birth  in  Qld for Alfred  in 1884
found  one  in  1889 ando in  1876  but  neither have siblings with these  names  but  the  index I  have  goes in  1889

do  you  have a  middle  name  for  this  alfred?

Jenn,

Sorry I think you misread or I haven't set it out correctly.
The chaps first name was Sydney ... second Alfred.

The three siblings names were:
1) Sydney Alfred WHEELER born abt 1884 Qld.
2) James WHEELER
3) Martha WHEELER

Thanks too countryozy.... the family moved to Holbrook, NSW. I have Sydney born Qld, married Victoria, lived and died NSW.

I think he died in Holbrook, NSW. The family seemed to settled there during WW1 and his sons all enlisted for  WW2 from there. I have checked the NSW BDM but don't find his death there.
