Hi Again

The Australian Electroral Rolls show the following, all in NSW ...

1930
BEAVIS Lionel Worthington 11A Durham Street Annandale South Motor Driver
BEAVIS Samuel 11A Durham Street Annandale South Fruiterer

1933
BEAVIS Lionel Worthington  6 a'Beckett Avenue Ashfield Motor Driver
BEAVIS Marjorie Thelma 6 a'Beckett Avenue Ashfield Home Duties
BEAVIS Samuel 6a'Beckett Avenue Ashfield Fruiterer

1936 and 1937 same details but no Samuel.  It looks like Lionel and Marjorie went their separate ways soon after as both Marjorie and Lionel appear on the subsequent Electoral Rolls alonel. 
The last Electoral Roll that I can find Lionel..

1954
BEAVIS Lionel 52 Liverpool Road Croydon Motor Driver


Cheers

 Hi
I found an index entry in the Sydney Directory for a business in 1890
BEAVIS A. & S. Fruit wholesalers and commission agents . 123 York Street Sydney.

I could not find the birth of A Beavis, but this could be the death


Death
 In 1945  BEAVIS,  ALFRED father  ROBERT mother  ELIZABETH  HURSTVILLE reg.  17193


Perhaps this was the beginning of the FRUIT business with the brothers together, which Karenlee spots in the 1930 & 1933 electoral roll.

Hi Karenlee and Sue. 

Lionel Worthington was my uncle so it is the correct family that you've turned up. I didn't know much about Lionel. Funny to see him listed as a "Motor Driver' as he was one of the worst drivers I have seen!

Didn't know about the fruit business either so that will be something else to check out.

Lionel was married to Marjorie but they divorced as you say. Lionel married my aunt  in 1959.

Thank You both for your efforts.
Cheers

Your ancestors are buried in the Anglican section of Rookwood cemetery.

I can do a headstone hunt and take photos, next week, if you like.

Thanks so much
