Australia Electoral Rolls Joseph Clarence DIXON - QLD
« on: Friday 17 July 09 15:48 BST (UK) »
Would anyone be able to look up a Joseph Clarence Dixon in the Australia Electoral Rolls for me.  Joseph was born about 1887 in Queensland, Australia and was married to a Mary, also born in Queensland, Australia.  In 1913 I think the family lived in Lilley, Queensland, Australia.  Any information regarding names of children, occupation, address, etc. would be very much appreciated.

Hi Karen,
The Electoral rolls only list adults in alphabetical order. I'm afraid you will have to sort out the families:
1913 Lilley, Nambour West
DIXON - Elizabeth Alice, Flaxton home duties
Eva Gertrude Chermside, Flaxton home duties
Joseph Chapman, Flaxton Farmer
Joseph Clarence, Chermside, Flaxton, farmer
Percival Arnold, Flaxton, farmer
William, Teutoberg, Labourer.

Would Joseph Chapman Dixon & Joseph Clarence Dixon be father & son?
Joseph Chapman is on earlier rolls 1903-05.

Joseph Clarence Dixon married Mary Emily Morris in 1915.
Ref = C1045

You can look up BMD indexes for Queensland at
http://www.justice.qld.gov.au/829.htm

Unfortunately Births indexes only go to 1914, so there's no way to find any children born to this couple on line.  :-\

1903 Roll at Gympie, Wide Bay lists his parents with 2 possible older sisters? He would only be 16 & too young to enrol.
DIXON:
Elizabeth Alice Young St  domestic duties
Elise Jane Young St  nurse
Joseph Chapman Young St Boot machinist
Olive Alice Young St shop assistant.

1905 Electoral Roll at Gympie Wide Bay is identical to the 1903 roll.
