Gus LINQUIST - Port Lincoln

[JacknSof]

Hi Terry
I have just returned from visiting my mother in Port Lincoln. Unfortunately she has no recollection of the Lindquist name. The Bascombe and Danzic families are still in Port Lincoln and there is Berryman's in nearby  Tumby Bay and Lipson.
Sorry I could not assist.

Cheers

Jack

Hi Jack . My mother came from Pt Lincoln also. Her parents were Mary Alice Maud Golley and Victor Vaino Haapanen.  He was also a friend of Axel Stenross and arrived in Pt Lincoln in 1922 on the 'Port Caladonia'.
family rumour says that Mary had quite a reputation for 'playing up' -possibly even with Axel. The large Golley clan married into the Danzic, Berryman, Waters, Kean, Bascombe and Lindquist familys

My great Aunt Myra Ethel Ann Golley (1902-1957) who lived and died in Port Lincoln South Australia, married a Gus Linquist.
There-in lies my dilemma.
All I can find is an Ernest Gustaf Ferdinand Linquist who died on 7 Nov 1955 in South Australia. I am hoping this is my "Gus".
I believe there may have been a daughter named Lorna Linquist.
Any help please?

Would love to hear form you Terri, My mother's maternal mother was Mary Alice Maud Golley but I have not been able to name her father. I know it was not Victor. She was born in 1939 and died in 1996. She visited Pt Lincoln when her paternal mother passed away but I don't believe she found any answers. I had the name Axel Stenross as a lead ( not from my mother ). You are obviously a 1/2 cousin and I would love to hear from you   Regards Wendy

your email address has been removed so makes it hard.My mother was born Marleen but name was changed when she was adopted. I know the next female born was Marleen also. i don't want to put too much on here as my mother was a very private person. It looks like we can PM each other but I need do do 3 postings before I can use this PM thingy and then I have to work it out..and yes I knew that Mum had a sister Valma
