Hi Flyspot - did you see this message I posted?  Have you any more info on George from your mum's birth cert?

Cheers
Prue

What is the date given for the marriage, as per your mum's birth cert?  What other info does it give re. George's occupation etc.?

Also in the same grave George Gibson buried 29.10.1959 aged 70yrs- which makes him born c1889

Hi Annie....thanx for that...have that already.....its everything before that I need and there seems to be no other records..my mums birth cert says a date of marriage for them that doesn't exist. and there are no birth records at all for George....seems he has either changed his name, was never married to my grandmother and is a ghost.....LOL

Hi Flyspot - did you not consider the Gibson family in Taree that I found?  They look promising (although it may be hard to prove a connection)

 
A William J GIBSON and his wife Louisa A were having children in Taree in the late 1800s/early 1990s; those found on the NSW BDM index are:

Reg No 23301/1886    William H    
Reg No 24165/1888    John R
Reg No 33520/1890    George J
Reg No 34171/1891    Stanley W
Reg No 34799/1893    Aenas (sic) C    
Reg No 27358/1895    Clifford L    
Reg No 7735/1900            Cecil A    

A few coincidences with names...could be worth a look?

Also, did you ever get your grandfather's death certificate?  YOu said you had ordered it.  Let us know when you get it, and what it says.
