Hi Shanko,
Thanks for the searches. Charles didn't die in infancy, but the same name is very intersting! Looks like we may have a bit of a 'dead-end'!
Thanks for trying, Treesearcher

I think the Charles Plummer Shanko refers to is 25y.o. at time of death.

I am also looking for a S.A. birth but have been advised that is was quite common not to reg. children if you lived a fair distance from registry office. Just too far to travel.

cheers,

That doesn't mean that the person can't be found. I could not find a birth at all in someone on my husbands side so I drove up to Hamley Bridge and there in the church records were his baptism. So wether a birth was registered or not you can still find a person

Also when a birth happened and you lived a while away from the main town or place there was an official who went to each town and took details from every person who had been born, died or got married

Never say never

Thanks Shanko that's good to hear and keeps our hopes up for sure. What if the person wanted to hide the birth perhaps? Then what?

cheers,

Wendy

You always have school registers you can look through if you know the area they lived, there are deaths from the area if the child died young, church registers in that area. Although it would be time consuming there are places you can locate a 'hidden' birth

I forgot to add that the birth may of been registered but it was lost during the journey from the area to the main records in the Adelaide Central register, or destroyed but it would still be in the church records

This is online at http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/search.htm
32068/1904  LANGLEY  ETHEL J  ARTHUR A  MYRA  FORBES   
35274/1905  LANGLEY  LILLIAN M  ARTHUR A  MYRA  MOLONG   

NSW birth index only goes to 1905 so lucky they were at the bottom end of your range. The death index stops at 1945 - you would need to contact the registry for info on later deaths.

Hello!

Thank you for your very generous offer.

I never thought that I would need to ask for help in trying to collect information about members of my family living in Australia as I was under the impression that they all lived in the Middlesex area!

However, I have just heard from a distant relative that some of my GREENEs emigrated to Australia around 1905:

'...Frederick William (born 6 April 1868) and Louisa GREENE (DOB unknown) with their four sons emigrated to Australia around 1905, where they remained.

(Their sons: William Frederick born 30.11.1891/Frank Archibald born 5.9.1895/Alfred David born 9.8.1897/Frederick Walter born 23.11.1898)

Frederick Walter, their son, married there and lived in Perth. He and his wife (Name/details unknown) had a son, Allan Frederick GREENE, born in 1926 and who died at the age of 21 years in a motorcycle accident......'

This is all I have to go on.

If you have any time to spare, I would be very grateful for any information (Births/deaths or marriages) you can provide from the records you have.

Many thanks and best wishes

This is probably firstly a Fed Index search request.

Albert R Willmott.  possibly born 1890.  Melbourne, Vic
Father Albert W.  Mother (?) Minnie W.

They were new immigrants from London.

There is a strange entry on the passenger lists,( right name right year)  it shows among other possible Willmotts, surname and an odd  upper-case A in a couple of the columns.  Do you know how Born Aboard was indicated in these records?

Secondly, if he is found, is there a marriage?  Anything at all would be of great interest.  With hopful thanks.  Sue
