Looking for info on Joseph Crombie

[garycrombie]

Thank you very much for your assistance,...are you able to identify Joseph's nationality on either death certificate or marriage? Or his actual date of birth?.

Regards

Gary

The marriage cert should include status, place of birth, age, occupation, father and mother and father's occupation. Death cert could include those items as well as spouse and children of marriage - however it depends on how much the informant knows. In this case I suspect the marriage cert would be more revealing (as parents' names not included on the Search Index for the death, so probably not on the cert.)

Transcriptions are cheaper and contain the same information, you can see the Transcription Agents names at the bottom of the NSW BDM page http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/Pages/family-history/family-history.aspx

Nellie remarried after the death of Joseph. She died in 1974.

Nellie Geno ALLSOPP d. 20 Oct 1974 #18075
Parents: Frederick & Emma Louisa

Death notice:

[judb]

From Electoral Rolls:
1949 at 4 Bennett St, Dee Why
Joseph CROMBIE, labourer(this is the only Joseph CROMBIE who does not use a second name, so I am assuming it's him.  In same general area of northern Sydney suburbs as Narrabeen - see below)

1954 at Pacific Lodge, Fisher rd, Dee Why
Joseph CROMBIE, wardsman

1958 at 89 Warraba Rd, North Narrabeen,
Joseph CROMBIE, no occupation given
Nellie Geno CROMBIE, home duties

I think he may have been married before Nellie. 

There is a death notice in 1945 for Agnes CROMBIE, wife of Joseph, resident at 4 Bennett St, Deewhy which is the address for Joseph in 1949

Marriage:
NSW 1929, #17553 reg at Newtown (suburb of Sydney)
joseph CROMBIE, Agnes DOUGALL/DONGALL

Obviously you would need certificates, but, as I have already said there are lots of men of that name but all seem to have a second forename.

Thank you again for your time and effort,...at one point I had assumed that Joseph had died under poor conditions in Scotland,...but it is very heart warming to find out he had settled in Australia and married. I will begin to order the relevant certificates to confirm,..however on Joseph's immigration documents he is noted as a wardsman (hospital),...so I feel confident that this will be my great great uncle.

Kind regards and thanks again.

There is a probate packet for Joseph CROMBIE who died in 1962 in NSW
https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/item/1046277

Also for Agnes CROMBIE https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/item/743169

I can photograph these for you next time I am there  (may be a couple of weeks).  It should contain death cert, will, details of heirs and list of assets and debts.
