just as every death was not registered (and there are many many of these - just compare the cemetery index to the 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.http://www.mundia.com/au/Person/9564677/1001196979
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).
QuoteCando - 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.CheersCando
