Adeline's ashes were interred with Bill, their only son, in the Methodist section

Frederick is in another grave in the Lutheran section.

Yes I remember Bill well.  Lovely bloke.

It would be Elsa Betty Dorothy SCHROEDER [the only time I've seen the name without the E is on a few shipping records].

I suspected they were married in 1913 in SA, but are not sure how to verify the information.

I knew Paul was in the Air Force during WWII. My mother-in-law told me that he desperately wanted to fly combat but since he was one of few qualified to teach they kept him in Australia as an instructor instead.

Elsa died nine months after my mother in law was born, in 1949. The Australian Cemetery Index has "Wilhelm Heinrich" listed as her father, though no headstone photo to confirm.....wonder if I can convince my mother in law to go on a trip and take a picture of it  ;)

A copy of the wedding certificate. I was not going to pay over $100 for a membership to see the details online!
I know I probably could have asked if anyone else had access, but this way I know I will get an official copy.
