Don't know now if John Scott BASSETT means anything since I have found the "daughter" mentioned by TEDED.


Marriage for sister Mabel

NEWTOWN district #10711
Date 1917

Some thoughts

Seems you are on track Essie,

So married in 1917 as Bassett, when, where, and what surname was the bride born and if born SCOTT then when was the name altered ... and what names for parents on the 1917 cert ....

Where would you like me to look next?

Cheers,  JM

NSW Electoral Roll 1903, The Darling, Polling Place Nymagee

(1903, first time females on the roll, it was NOT compulsory for males or females to enrol, but you needed to be 21 and over to be eligible)

Alice Helena BASSETT, at her domestic duties, Nymagee (no street address)
NONE with surname SCOTT ...
NO others with surname BASSETT

Cheers,  JM (very confused now, as to who was Alice Helena Bassett in 1903 .... )

UPTON  ;D

NSW ER 1903, The Darling, Nymagee

Henry UPTON, a miner at Nymagee (no street address)
Maria Anne UPTON, at her domestic duties at Nymagee (no street address)

As there is no street address on this copy of the roll, do not presume Henry and Maria Anne are at same address, or are related to each other. 

Cheers,  JM

I think Mabel had a brother, I think John SCOTT birth 1900 registered at Nymagee to Alice E W (no father listed on index) Ref 24848...

Still very confused as to who was Alice Bassett 1865-1922

Still confused as to BASSETT

But I notice that the same rego numbers show John SCOTT and Mabel SCOTT were also registered under the surname UPTON at Nymagee

Mabel UPTON 33227/1898
John UPTON 24848/1900

Also, that Henry and Maria A UPTON at Nymagee (see 1903 Electoral Roll) were parents to two children registered there in same era
Lillian M in 1901 and Myrtle H in 1904. 

Can Lillian be contracted to Lily .... Yes, certainly...
Saturday 17 March 1923
IN MEMORIUM
BASSETT- In loving  memory of our mother, Alice, aged 57, died March 22 1922. also our dear sister, Mabel Marie Wall, aged 24 died November 1, 1922.
Inserted by Martha and Lily

It seems to me we have found Alice SCOTT nee UPTON  later  BASSETT - the mother of Martha and Lily SCOTT !!!
Saturday 17 March 1923
IN MEMORIUM
BASSETT- In loving  memory of our mother, Alice, aged 57, died March 22 1922. . . . . Inserted by Martha and Lily
 

I doubt there was ever a marriage to Mr BASSETT  if Mabel M BASSETT and John Scott BASSETT were registered under Alice’s maiden name.
