Can you see a marriage for Henry/Harry and Lesley?

Goodness! I'm quite overwhelmed. I'm slowly working my way through everyone's hints, little bit by little bit. I STILL cannot find the record that Raylen first put me onto, with the Reg# 31259 - when I use that registration no. only for the search form on Vic BMD, it takes me to a page which doesn't have any Palmers on it, nor any Wfreds, and it is a single page. Can I ask where you found the record, Raylen?

The info about Claude & Elsie's twin sons was really interesting - I've traced both of them through as far as the 1980 Electoral Rolls (sorry Cando - I've spent most of my Ancestry time so far on the UK side of the family, so my fingers almost automatically type 'Census' - I do know better, and will try to get my facts correct next time). It doesn't seem that Kenneth married or had children, but Robert married a Lois Lillian (haven't found her maiden name yet) and moved to Queensland - they don't seem to have had any children.

Very appreciatively,
Anna

Information re access to birth in Victoria is on reply#10.

You cannot access birth information in 1916.

Many of us have a resource with births to 1920 which was published prior the Privacy Act and access restrictions the births within the last 100 years.

If you were searching correctly ie Surname, given name, year and registration number, you would get a negative result for that registration number in 1916 as that information is not available on the online indexes.

The registration number must be attached to the year of the event.  An identical number may appear in many other years.

Sorry that was my fault  - I just added that bit about reg number from Raylene helping to find birth record without realising that birth was in 1916 and Vic birth records online do not include those births.

The different states have different cut-off points (that's my excuse  ) 

Sorry for causing confusion and angst.

regards,

Ah, thank you for that. I had read your previous posts about birth records, but couldn't figure out how there could be information provided by others here, that I couldn't acccess. I'm a bit slow, but I do catch on eventually. Thanks for being patient with me.

No worries, Ros - I appreciate all the help and info. I'd got pretty slick with finding UK stuff, but the Australian formats are very different, and it's quite a shift in thinking, really. This is probably the first branch that I've really got stuck into as far as Aussie records are concerned - and sometimes you read so much background info that it all just becomes a blurr - there's nothing quite like getting stuck in and learning as you go. I am truly appreciative all all the help.

Here are the newspaper Engagement notices for the twin sons.

Robert

Kenneth

From them you will get the maiden names you are seeking.

Both theses marriages took place and KENNETH and his wife appear on the E Roll to 1980.  He was an accountant in Aspendale. Vic in 1980.

Anna the Australian Resources board has lots of excellent links for Australia and each State individually.  BDM's, immigration, cemeteries, war service records, etc. 

The National library has digitized newspapers online to c1954 with some publications a little later.  I can't do live links at the moment but google Trove.
