I wonder if the Couldrey was 'dropped' once in Aust. to cover up Edgar/Ernest's name change or if Stewart did it later? (Guess I'll never know).
Hi Loz
Hmmm ... what year did "Stanley Stewart CAMERON" marry ?
It seems that if your Mum had known him as "Stewart Couldrey" ... then the name change must have come about just prior to his marriage (or enlistment) whichever came first ?
Interesting huh ? Wonder though, if he was actually known as "Stewart" (or "Stanley") in these later years ?
You did find his death eventually ... is that correct ?
Perhaps there is a death notice for him ... which may give a hint as to what christian name he was generally known by ?
You know, in all of this HYDE / CAMERON saga, it is Iris who gave the "very best" clue (by stating on her marriage cert. that her father was "Ernest HYDE Cameron").
But you'd have to wonder too, if (in later years), some of the other children or family members, got "wind of" Ernest's "hidden past".
Glad you found the DORKS / Darks etc. etc. Great !
