Yes that is Frances's death in Traralgon Vic. 1959.
thanks for the reply.
I do have the information that I need for Gordon St. Clare Watson after his birth,
he married my aunt in 1937 I'm not sure how the Field was added to her name she was definitely Vera Doreen Lindsay.
I did try to upload part of the birth certificate for Gordon St. Clare Watson but I couldn't get it to work....I must be missing doing a step.!
I have Henry and Frances Watson on various Electoral rolls together  until 1924.then nothing I can find for Henry Watson again. Frances Watson is on some 1930's with her son Gordon and from memory 1940's electoral rolls.
What I am really trying to establish and verify is parents ( I do have a birth for  Frances born New Zealand 1872 that is a possibility) of both Henry and Frances and when they travelled to Victoria.
Henry Watson registered the birth and his occupation traveller.
thanks to all who have replied.

Hi smithy

.... " I have Henry and Frances on various Electoral rolls together until 1924 " ...

Q.   Can you please state exactly where?   
(So we don't have to involve ourselves in lengthy searches  :) )

Cheers.

On various Electoral Rolls for Victoria Australia:
Henry & Fanny Watson Sale Victoria occupation; Traveller on the 1913,
 Henry & Frances Sale Victoria 1914,1915 Rolls
The next I have is Henry & Frances Jumbuk occupation: Farmer 1924
that is the only ones I can be sure that's the Henry Watson I'm researching.

Frances Watson is on 1935,1936,1937,1949 @ Selby Victoria home duties with her son Gordon St. Clare Watson.

On the 1942 Roll she is still in Selby living by herself.

On the 1949 Electoral Roll she is once again with her son In Morwell Victoria.

Thanks mckha and smithy for those addresses.     

Was interested in Henry's occupation(s) during those years.   
Have found something in NZ which is "vaguely interesting" ... may fit, may not.  8)  Just gotta piece it together now.    ;D

Henry WATSON age 39 years as stated on his son's Gordon St.Clare Watson who was born Sale Victoria 1913.

.....He may have been Henry George or George Henry.

Back again   ... with another question.

Carol ... why have you said he may be Henry George or George Henry ??

Q.    Is that info you've taken from an online tree perhaps ?     Can you explain please why Henry has these additional names ??

And more questions  re: VIC birth certificate for 1913   : 

Q.    Does the cert. give the Father's place of birth  ??

Q.    And does it confirm that the mother, Frances was born in NZ  ...  and where  ??
