Christian names only?

[majm]

Thanks,

Any suggestions for tracing a death and burial in Australia (1905-1955 period) when only the christian names are available. Have birth date, 1st. marriage date but not the 2nd marriage details, thus an unknown surname. TEDED

So the searching needs to be from 1922 and not from 1905 ....   and there's a far western NSW connection ....

Have you looked for Alice in the electoral rolls? she was eligible to enrol .... 

I have family moving from Cobar to Sydney post WWI and living in two room house ....  several generations all in same house, inlaws, two couples, and their children as well...  Big backyards in those times, vegie patches fed the household, and there were verandahs, lean to additions etc.

Cheers,  JM

Hi there,

Outside of your 1905-1955 timeframe, but

On NSW BDM online index, there’s this one that you may want to consider...

Alice Mabel SCOTT, death at Brayton, aged 93 registered in 1975...  Ref 15836   (likely birth years 1882,3,4)
The index does not include any given names for her parents, suggesting these were not known to the informant, perhaps the middle name may be misleading.

At the Ryerson Index 
This shows as Alice M SCOTT, and a notice was in the Goulburn Post in 23 June 1975. http://www.ryersonindex.org/



Cheers,  JM

No. That would make Alice 110yrs. old. She was born in 1865. TEDED

From the online NSW BDM index

Death in 1947
Alice WALKER, dau of David and Martha, registered at Concord district reference 29855

A transcript of that d.c. would help confirm or eliminate....

Cheers,  JM
