Electoral Roll Lookup Victoria Please
« on: Wednesday 23 April 08 12:35 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Could some-one please lookup a Basil Joseph HARDY on the Victoria Electoral roll from 1920 onwards?  I think he would have been in the Balaclava district.  He died in 1959, but don't know exactly where in Victoria that was.

Thank you for your help

Reenie

Rosalind Mary Hardy      "     "       "              "           - Home duties


MariaC posted 1931 and 1936 address as Trevellyan Street
which is in Elsternwick and his death 
registered in 1959 is at Elst ( Elsternwick.)
Wonder if he stayed in the same suburb until he died   ???

Hi

Thanks Mariac and Raylen for doing the lookups on the electoral roll. I really appreciate it.  If only his brothers Vincent and Austin were as easy to find!

Have a great day

Reenie      :)

Not sure if you are also looking for WILLIAM JOHN & SARAH JANE HARDY who are listed with Basil in 1916 electoral roll.

They are buried together in R. Catholic section at Karrakatta
William John Hardy aged 92 died  18/9/1943. From North Perth. DB 0053
Sarah Jane Hardy aged 63 died 12/3/1919 from Leederville DB 0053

There is another NAA reference to Vincent Rudge Hardy at NAA.  I don't know what it is about as not digitised, but you can get further details as it  is marked OPEN[ small cost]

Hi,

Yes, thats them!  I'm so excited.  ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Raylen and Sue for doing those lookups.  I was wondering if they had gone to Victoria with Basil, or maybe another Australian State.  Their brother Hubert Edward Hardy ended up in NSW, and he is my great grandfather.  Is the electoral roll for WA as well as Victoria?  If it is, would you mind looking up Hubert Edward HARDY? He also had brothers Phillip, Leo and sisters Etheldred and Mary.


I had found my g.g.grandparents in Karrakatta, but I did not know where Vincent and Austin had gone too.

Could you please tell me what Chelt stand for?

Thanks again for your help

Hi Raylen,

Thanks for looking up Hubert.  Yes, they are all relations except for 1930 in NSW with Maude, who I have never heard of.  I would have thought Hubert would still have been in Victoria.

Reenie :)
