just as every death was not registered (and there are many many of these - just compare the cemetery index to the death index)
Anne

May I ask what cemetery index and which death index?

Ted, one of the tree owners FREEMAN Family Tree (tonydfreeman) states they have his death certificate which supposedly confirms his relationship with Margaret.

That is my family tree. Where does it state I have "his" death cert. I have Margarets and that is where I got my info that is on that tree, from

I have just edited my Ancestry tree to say that it is information from Margarets family tree. - wow never thought anyone took any interest in ancestry trees. If you look at my tree in detail you will find that I am one of only a few who makes comments. And I have given thanks to Rootschat members for information.

I even asked our Mod T if it was ok to mention Rootschat as a source.

There also has to be a reason why Margaret did not marry Sydney Woodland (though she took his surname and pretended that she was married to him).

May I note that Margaret was quite entitled to use any name she wanted. It was not and still is not illegal to use any name, so long as you are not acting fraudulently or attempting to deceive.  Name changes through usage were not unusual.   "Mrs" as a courtesy title was also not unusual. 

Cheers,  JM

Cando - I am not familiar with the Sands and MacDougal directory - was Margaret the landowner?

I describe the Sands and MacDougall directories similar to our white and yellow pages without the telephone numbers.   The early ones are excellent resources for tracking persons in Melbourne and surrounding areas.     Margaret was the occupier of 36 O'Grady Street, Clifton Hill.  I guess it is possible she owned the property but that could only be confirmed by a search of the title at the Titles Office or what ever it is known by today. Have a look on google streetview.  Would be the same house today :)

Merlin and I possibly have the same 1903 Vic roll.  It is possible to search by address.

Cheers

Merlin is so amazing that - my Ancestry tree was found on Mundia. - I have to note that I do state that It is from Margarets death cert. and therefore all speculation.
