Australian Electoral Roll

[tigerbelle]

Hi,

Can anyone help me with the following:

My Great Grandfather Percy James Millan McCance is a mystery man, I know he is on the Australian Electoral role but I cannot access this at present.  I was trying to find his occupation and date of birth


Thanks in advance for your assistance

In 1914.....Maribyrnong Essendon

Percy James Millan McCance 80 Fletcher St Essendon Prod. Mcht.

In 1919 they are living at 167 Moore St Moonee Ponds and Percy is a Traveller

1924 - 23 Shaftesbury St Essendon, Percy is an Insurance Inspector
1931 (as 1924)

1936 (same details as above for Percy but a couple of other names
Aubrey William McCance, Draftsman
Kenneth Lording McCance, Accountant

1909, Moore St Moonee Ponds
Percy - Produce Merchant
Edith Mary - Home Duties

If you put a post on the Emigrants to Australia board someone who has the Vic birth indexes should be able to find his birth details. That is if he was born in Australia or maybe he married in Vic.

I have the marriage for Robert and Mary on the AVRI - but it only gives one birthplace - someone with the Vic early CD should be able to give both birthplaces

Robert McCance married Mary Greenwood 1873 ref 4692 - one of them born Yorkshire

I will see if I can trace Mary to find her parents. I don't see a birth for Robert in Victoria. There is one in 1852 for a Mary Ann Greenwood
