Sue, an interesting SLATTERY death.....

Essie
This would be the death which OP says cannot be her as his mother’s recollection was from childhood ... Sue


Yes, I posted that death because these surnames were mentioned in the first post, ... Was related to the Moores and the Irelands;  and may instead refer to the "Aunt" in Reply #3 and not the mother.

If Stanley John died at Albury, reg 1650/1963,  then his parents were recorded as John and Elizabeth.

WW1 enlistment #2518
LENARD Stanley John  b. Albury NOK wife Evangle...This is my Grandfather and Grandmother. The name changes throughout the war records. And his registration no. changes too.

The digitised file is available for all to read.  The attestation papers are completed by a third party.  Information given verbally and this would explain the reason for the variation on the spelling of his surname. He signed his surname LENARD. Stanley was transferred to another Company during WW1 and this may be the reason for the differing/additional service number. The second file on NAA which is not digitised relates to War Pensions.  And then his WW2 file.

I also note in his WW1 service file his time as an apprentice to a firm in Melbourne.

You could purchase this certificate online [$21] and immediately download.

This would give the name of his parents.

Marriage in Victoria.
LEONARD Stanley born Albury
MONTGOMERY Evangel born Melbourne.
1911  Reg#10923

I think that the 1942 death in Vic is Stanley's mother.  Family stories are often incorrect.

Possible marriage of parents in England - couldn't find anything in Aus.

Marriages Dec 1846 
IRELAND  George        Pocklington    23/162    
WAITES Elizabeth     Pocklington    23/162

Cando

And I think this is her birth

Births Dec 1859   
IRELAND Elizabeth         Pocklington    9d/64

 This earlier death of a sister of ELLEN ELIZABETH


RALSTON  Ruth
Father Ireland Geo
Mother Elizth WATES
Age 40
Preston
Year  1891
Reg  7861


http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/8629288
Funeral notice for Ruth RALSTON sister of ELLEN?

Clutching at straws a bit, but there was a little boy born to Ruth RALSTON at about the right time to match the given birthdate of Stanley. Not at Albury though :-\

Wondering....


RALSTON Norman
Father Gavin
Mother Ruth IRELAND
Birth Place PRESTON
Year 1890
Reg. Number 35588
