South Australia lookup Olive Agnes FITZGERALD

Hi,

I am looking for details of my great grand mother Olive Agnes Fitzgerald atm (Henry James Stephens shortly if something comes up  ). Any information would be great. So far I have:

Married: Henry James Stephens & Olive Agnes Fitzgerald

Children:

Margaret Millicent 22nd May 1920  - Book 55A Page 406 -My grandmother
Died 12/9/1990

Kevin Frederick  27 Nov 1916  - Book 989 / 364

There are a couple of deaths for the children:

Henry died 16 Nov 1915 Dist Ade  396 / 599

Thanks to Cristobel from this forum back in 2008

I also received help from Cando and Gadget - thankyou

I have William Stephens as Henry's father (but I naively didn't note where I got that from). I also have Edward Fitzgerald as Olive's Father (again, no source).

cheers

This looks like Henry's birth

STEPHENS Henry James 18 Nov 1874 Adelaide Dist Ade 142 266 parents William STEPHENS and Alice HINES

sister

STEPHENS Mary 25 Mar 1863 Adelaide Dist Ade 27 186

STEPHENS William 21 status not recorded father John STEPHENS = HYNES Alice 17 single father John HYNES 1 Jun 1862 Catholic Church Mount Barker Dist MtB 50 332

Entry from the Biographical Index of South Australians (In part of a submitted nature but a most helpful resource to SA researchers)

STEPHENS William residence Adelaide religion RC
married 1 Jun 1862 Mt Barker SA to Alice nee HYNES
children Mary 1863, Henry Jas 1874, Arthur Francis 1877, Alfred 1880

We do tend to find some of our Catholic ancestors did not register births (they felt a baptism more important.)
