Look up Victoria please
« on: Thursday 08 April 10 20:05 BST (UK) »
I have had fantastic help on this board before so I am hoping some kind person can come to my rescue again!

I am still on the trail of the Miller family, see:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,394865.0.html


I have now come across a George Redman Miller who was the son of William and Ella Miller, born c1870 in Chewton VIC

I know that William and Ella married in Bristol in 1848 and had a son William Frederick Redman Miller in Bristol. They can't be found in England in 1851 so they may have already left for Australia.

Hopefully there were other children between William b1849 & George b1870. This might help me to narrow down when they arrived. If any one could find reference to this family I would be most grateful.

I like to think that we work as a team in helping others.....it isn't race.

The death certificate of either of William or Ella would give you the years in Australia and the names of their children both living or deceased at the time of the parent's death.   The information on Ella's certificate may possibly  be more accurate than William.  It is possible to purchase an image of the certificate online and immediately download [AUD $17.50]

and information on Victorian certificates
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,373754.0.html

I can only find the following deaths.

Australian Electoral Rolls
1919

MILLER George Redman  21 Broughton Road, Surrey Hills  Labourer

and then in 1949 a George Redman MILLER is alone at Lisson Grove Hawthorn, occupation gardener.

I couldn't find a marriage for George Redman in Vic and after searching all states found this in Western Australia

and
Australian Electoral Roll

It would appear that Caroline's surname has been mistranscribed.

There are two Caroline MILLER burial records at Springvale but neither are buried with George Redman MILLER.  Neither of them have the maiden name of BRANTON.

while I was busy sleeping....

thank you so much for all the information. I will sift through it and work out where to go next.

I was delighted to see a Millicent Amelia because this leaves no doubt that I am on the right track.

Once again, many thanks to you all for your speedy work  ;D
