I attach a snip

And I wonder if there's perhaps a bigger sample of Annette's writing ... perhaps more of that document to help with decipher.   

I think the sample we have reads :

… and be a different issue, they
...would like to do so.
Best wishes,
Annette  Becadh.

Can I also ask if our OP meant to date this as 1990s or as 1890s...  :)

https://www.data.qld.gov.au/dataset/assisted-immigration-1848-to-1912/resource/d62c9618-18df-4a2a-8cf0-d14da3d6db0f

that should be a live link to immigration database for Queensland 1848-1912 with those with surname commencing with B. 

Ada BEACH is likely the first listing for surname Be………………………………….  She is at line 5175.

So if Annette or her ancestors arrived in Queensland before 1912, perhaps the surname is listed in that database.

(I thought I had already posted similar, but it must have gone to cyberspace, I cannot find it....)
