Children of Robert James DORAN & Hannah CHAMBERLAIN - Williamstown Victoria
« on: Saturday 19 January 13 00:08 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for some missing details on the Children of Robert James Doran (1887 - 1961) and Hannah Chamberlain (1890 - 1991) who lived in Williamstown, Victoria. 

Robert and Hannah were married in 1911.

I believe they had 10 children, 5 of which i have little information.  The 5 are :

May Doran ?
Vera Evelyn Doran (1914 - ?)
Robert Stanley (1919 -?)
Dorothy Jean Doran ?
Valma Lorna Doran ?

The other 5 children were:
Alan James Doran (1916—1918)
Reginald Francis Doran (1918—1921)
James Septimus Doran (1923—1985)
Keith William Doran (1925—1978)
Irma Patricia Doran (1930—1985)

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Shane

Hi Shane,

Possible birth for May Doran

This looks one of the missing five Dorans

I have purchased the Death notice for Robert Stanley Doran and he is one of the five also as the notice lists his father (Robert) and mother (Hannah)

Regards Vera Evelyn - I think she may have married a Walter Charles Curran in 1944 (listed on a couple of family trees).  As per Trove Vera was the house keeper for Walter Charles Curran in the early 1930's (court case over alimony). 

Again

Thanks for your help

Cheers
