I you are referring to this "S"   Charles R S JACKSON married March quarter 1918 to Kathleen A JACKSON, I am afriad I don't know, could be a tying error.

 I am just going to accept Charles was born in NSW.

Thank you all for your help.

The details would likely be on that marriage certificate.   It would be significant as Charles should have given details about his own father at that time too.    To me, if this were my family, I would be getting that document, particularly to learn more about Charles, his bride, their parents, and also the names of the witnesses.... I wonder if Meta was one of the witnesses....

Cheers,  JM

I will look for his marriage details to Kathleen in England but, Charles's birth entry would me his parents. Have looked on the NSW BMD's free on-line search for 1890/1981 but nothing.

I am quite sure that we have all checked each and every available (and there's many) versions of the NSW BDM indexes .... not just the online version of the NSW BDM, so it is good to know that you have checked the online index. 

I am quite sure that the following indexes have also been checked (and likely many others too, including many that are not available online)

(noting that was the first project completed by the State Records Volunteers. )

Can't  find the thread where it said to pop back with Jacqueline and Reg BYRNES marriage in 1943 Coffs Harbour.

She was 17yrs and Reg was 31yrs when they married. Something I haven't come across before:

Consent - The consent of Annie Jackson was given in writing to the marriage of the Bride.

Well, it gives her father as John James STEEL (deceased) not Jack. His occupation was Building Contractor.

Well, as she was under age... consent had to be in writing by either of her parents, guardian or a legal entity.
