Henry Heldon FARMER - death notice ~~ look up please ~~
« on: Tuesday 20 September 11 15:38 BST (UK) »
Hello Roots Chat people,

I've been dying to get my peepers on the Death Notice of Henry Heldon FARMER. I have been living overseas and haven't had the opportunity to look it up myself. His he Death Notice was published in the Sydney Morning Herald on 31 May 1973. His name may have been misprinted as Holden and instead of Heldon

If anyone out there happens to be looking up the Sydney Morning Herald micro fiche could you please tell me what it says in his death notice. I'm very interested in any names that may be mentioned.


thank you if anyone can help :)

kind regards,
Eloise

Wow, thanks Ros I had no idea Google had this. It's very useful to know about. However, I'm baffled to discover that I can't find his death notice ??? I got the details about it off the Ryerson Index and it's always proved accurate. So I'm a little confused as to why I can't find him in that issue.

Will have to keep looking and thanks again to bringing this Google service to my attention :)

Hi Eloise,
    I've been trying to see it as well.  There's a trick to seeing beyond the given images which I don't know.  Last time Judith managed to see one (similar situation) so I'm hoping she tells us the info (and the trick).

    By the way on other issues you can see the last page of previous issue on next issue.  But when I look at June 1 it seems that this doesn't apply.  It's frustrating to think that info is so close and yet ...

regards,
   Ros

There's a Dorothy buried at Woronora Cemetery:

Dorothy Jean HELDON Memorial Henry Kendall Gardens - ROSE GARDEN 13 - 0138 25-2-2006

She was married to one Ossian Heldon, who is also at Woronora.


Stupid me! I was looking up Heldon as the surname.  ::)

Do you have the deaths and burial places of Henry's parents? I've found them if not.

Is there anything else in particular you'd like on the family?
