Im trying to help but a lot of records for birth/ deaths and marriages online end before the dates we are looking at.
For example NSW bmd online births finish in 1913. And we are looking for a birth around 1921.
[i only used nsw bmd as a example]

Do you know any names of siblings for Valerie? Was Valerie aboriginal as well?
Just trying to think of different avenues to search.

They would have most likely married after the online cut off date as well, cause i cant find a marriage neither.
