He was back in NSW around August 1923. Through work references, I can pretty much track Robert Stevens until he died.


Between 1923 and the time of his 1941 marriage, where precisely was he over those years according to the information you have?

This ancestry tree gives an unsubstantiated fact...
The birthdate for Marjorie WILKINS is 12th July 1902
http://person.ancestry.com/tree/57274130/person/30021920592/facts

This matches the birthdate given on the death index for Marjorie SEALE in Croydon, Surrey, UK.

WORK REFS - All in the surname of STEVENS and unless [ ] it was in the name of Robert:
10-May-1923 - [Robert W] Mangahao Hydro Elect Power Stn-Shannon, NZ (period of 15 mths) Which would take him back to Feb 1922
25-Aug-1923 - "Forest House" Matcham (period of 3 mths) NEWS ITEM -Just researched where this place was. It's near Gosford NSW. George Heyne signed the ref. He was one of the first settlers in the area. Born in Madras, India 22 Sept 1880 of British parents! - OK- Were the Heynes known to the Seales?
13-Apr-1925 - "Wakefield" Scone NSW [Robert H] (nearly 2 yrs)
05-Nov-1925 - "Harrison & Co" Stone Merchants Gosford NSW (A bit of fudging dates here perhaps, as it says he was employed for 12mths. Unless Robert had 2 jobs.)
20-Nov-1926 - The Colonial Sugar Refining Co [No area given] (commenced 29-June-1926)
1934-39 - Irvingdale QLD (5 years according to a letter)
1939-40 - Pilerwa - cane cutting for 6 mths/6 wks/6 mths
1941 - Doolbi, Isis District, QLD. He worked on my grandfather's farm and that's where he met Mum. He then stayed in the district until we left for Beaudesert, QLD 1967

I hope this helps. Cheers.  Betty

The little I've read marries in with a lot of your info. I must eat  ;D this is so engrossing. I'm going to put my things in order, as it's becoming a mess. Somewhere at the back of my mind Heyme rings a bell. And it's not from the ref as I've barely scanned George name.
When I googled "Forest House" Matcham, that's when I got the background and connection. x x Betty
