John COWARD of roma Queensland

[essexgg]

Am looking for information and the family of one John Coward who was from Roma in Queensland Australia , and this is the information i was given:-

Name: John Coward died about 1968 May - June (I am his biological daughter) My mother (*) was 6 weeks pregnant with me, when he passed and he was 30 yrs old.

His occupation was a Truck driver
education:- MATRICULATION and University 1 year. Of Music of arts, could possibly played trumpet (Brass instrument)

Height :- 6ft 4 ins
Weight :- 12 stone 7 pounds
Studied music at a conservatorium.
Hair:-  Fair
Eyes :- Blue
Skin :- Fair

Was told also he tought braile and was artistic.
John might have had a sister.

 (I was adopted).

He was burried at ROMA.

Apparently he had a gentle soul and the local church needed painting and someone donated the paint and he painted it for nothing.

So if anyone can help me locate my father's family or siblings, I would be most grateful. Many thanks.

                            Yours faithfully

Hi,

I couldn't find a John COWARD as a truck driver in the QLD electoral rolls during that time. Have you tried contacting the cemetery direct and asked for further information? You might be lucky because occasionally they can provide a little bit more info that is enough to set you in the right direction. Once you have done that then contact QLD BDM to see if you can purchase his death certificate although they only have up til 1964 online. This should (but not always) state his parents, age at death, usual address and marital status.

Good luck!
