Help Needed for Victoria Family Please

[Jan Ann]

Hiyall 

I am trying to track down a Esther Grace Lyons who was born 1881 Melbourne, Victoria to Isaac Lyons and his wife Mary Theresa O'Brien. I am also trying to find out what happened to her daughter.

Grace married George Thomas Blore 1904 North Melbourne. They had two children before George was Killed in Action 1917. Trevor GV Blore (died London 1972, I have lots of information on him - he travelled the world with the Navy and was a writer/journalist) and Vivienne L Blore. I dont know if Vivienne died young or not because I have seen a few trees that suggest Trevor was their only child, but newspaper reports on George's death suggest he had two children when he died, and his Army Record Pension also names Trevor and Vivienne.

Grace may have remarried but Im having trouble tracking her down and I havent a clue what happened to Vivienne L Blore and I cant trace a year of birth for her either but Im guessing between 1906 and 1917 in Victoria.

I found Esther Grace Blore residing at St Kilda in the Victoria Electoral Rolls until 1919 then she disappears.

All help greatly appreciated, as ever 
Cheers
Jan

Hi Jan

there is a indexed marriage for an Esther Grace Blore in 1927 to a Lewis Henry Braham in Victoria

You'll probably have to get the marriage certificate as there is no other information on the index.

There is also a Vivienne Blore (no middle initial) marrying a Henry Charles Kay in 1937 that could be a possible

Death of Esther Grace Braham in 1934 in East Malvern, aged 47, confirms her parents as Isaac Lyons and Mary O'Brien

Age is a bit off but confirming the parents it's her.

No problem 

even blanket searching just on Vivienne/Vivian or just using Blore and Bloor or Lyons turns up nothing for her birth all the way up to 1917.  Unless she was not born in Australia or at least not Victoria?  Mind you UK search turning up nothing too.....


random google search turns up Vivienne Lesley Blore born 1917.  http://www.ancientfaces.com/person/vivienne-lesley-blore/139888944

there is an Ogs Brow in Queensland that may be worth looking at as I can't find anywhere called 'Ogs' otherwise
