Has been a while since I posted anything.

Just had a little information regarding Jack James STEEL and his daughter Jacqueline. She saw him for the last time when she was 5 years old, in Bellingen, that would be 1931.

So, perhaps the family moved there from Sydney.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas  :)

Cup,

It is unlikely that Jack James STEEL resided in Bellingen in 1931. 

You coulf check NSW BDM and notice that there’s NO deaths registered in the Bellingen NSW BDM district in the name of STEEL in the years since civil registration commenced until the most recent date for unrestricted access.  That is often a good indication of if a family resided in a district of NSW during the 130 years to 1985.   

Here’s another way of checking :

By 1930, it was compulsory for all British Subjects (no such legal status as Australian Citizen until after WWII) who resided in Australia and who were aged 21 years of age or more to be enrolled to vote.  Bellingen was in the NSW electorate of RALEIGH and the Federal electorate of COWPER.   

From the 1930 Electoral Rolls for those electorates, there’s NO ONE with the surname STEEL or variations.

From the 1932 Electoral Rolls for those electorates, there’s NO ONE with the surname STEEL or variations. 

Of course, perhaps Jack James STEEL was no longer living by 1931 ... Cup, please go back through all your threads and check.

Happy Christmas

ADD

Don't forget that you have him as deceased

Trying to find Jack James STEEL death details. All I know is he died 1929/30. 

He was the de-facto husband to Annie. They had a daughter around 1926. I believe in 1927, they were living in Redfern.

I have all the relevent information after 1930

Cup, 

The family in Bellingen were Charles Robert and Annie JACKSON, and they are on the electoral roll with address at Bellingen from 1936.....     As to Jacqueline being in Bellingen in 1931, when the Great Depression was causing much grief in New South Wales families .... how did Jacqueline get there/ who was she staying with/.... well I cannot tell, but if you look back through this thread you should be able to trace Annie's movements.

JM,

Many thanks once again. The little info I got recently from cousin Australia is probably incorrect, as they have Jacqueline's date of birth, wrong.

I'll go back to the beginning and start over again.

Just received this snippet of information on Annie Titterington. She was working as a barmaid in the Redfern/Paddington area of Sydney. No year given, but have asked if than give one.

Hi,

I will try to find some quiet time to go back through my offline NSW resources to see if there's any further information I can find to help validate that info.
