The death notice where it says loving father of “j” and “J”. Is his son XXXX and daughter XXXX. Possibly known as XXXX..

You can read the actual notice if you click on the link I gave.  I don't know if Leslie's children are living.   He married in 1925 as per your recent post.  So his children not yet 100.  If living, they are entitled to privacy of the individual, including their names.

Majm.    I did read the notice. Twice incase I missed something.  The L.G Abbott co  the initials of Les and George.  But a coincidence no doubt.   Both of Les  Nelson’s children are deceased.  Jack  died 6th Sept .1993.  Buried ar Centennial Park. Adelaide.    Marjorie Jean  died 3rd July 2007. Buried at West Terrace Adelaide.. strange they were not buried at the same cemetery.   Dalek.

Majm.  Arrrhh.  Just had a thought.   Maybe “ Pops “ (  Mary Jean Nelson, spinster) and Nance  were “closer” than the other sisters.   🙄😬 strange there was no mention of the late father James Nelson.  Or am I just reading things into it.  I try to look at all possibilities but most times wrong. 🥴. Seven children in all and a big gap between the last two boys.  She would have been in her mid fifties at the time of their births.  As I said previous post  questionable but not impossible.   Dalek.

  Majm.  Thanks for that information.  Leslie Nelson was a glass worker.  Explains his place of employment. Do you know the date that was published.  Dalek.

Majm.  I see the publication of that notice of LG Abbott fire was  12 Jun  1950.  Same date as Les Nelson died 29th Oct. 1950.  4 months later.     Nothing to do with the fire. 
And I’ve just received a date of Leslie Nelson.  Born  15th  April  1898.   Dalek.

Yes, I had already included the date of the newspaper cutting in that post.  Yes, I agree that I was not indicating that the fire had anything to do with Les' death later in that same year.  Yes, I agree I posted that cutting as it gave everyone following your threads, now and in the future, a good representation of L.G. Abbott & Co.   

Good you now have a date of birth for Les.  Does the document confirm his parentage and his place of birth and his older siblings?  Does it name the informant and their relationship to him?    Perhaps you could share that info in a post on this thread, so that anyone helping your quest can be kept up to date.
