Hi again,
Genni,
Thank you for offering to check the electoral rolls, that would be brilliant. Also for where all the places mentioned are in relation to Melbourne. It does help to give me an idea where they all lived.
OnJenn,
Thank you for the info on Arthur John, I hadn't got round to checking out the NAA yet, that's my next quest. I had found a son of Julia & Albert Franklin on there. He was Albert Ernest & his record has been digitized. I was amazed at how much info I found. I wish we had the same here in UK for WW1............
Again, many thanks to you all, I still can't get over that 24 hours ago I knew nothing about my grt grt Aunt after 1901, now I have so much more.
One day I might even discover just when they went to Oz. 
My very best
Maddie

Hello there Madie
checked the death index for vera's death but nothing up to 1985 in Victoria under Sinclair
now without knowing Arthur John Sinclair actual data from his wedding certificate
I have found the death of a Arthur John Sinclair that matches his details from WW2 nok given as Vera
he was born in 1893 at DIAM reg no 3025
parents William Sinclair and Margaret Howard
he died in 1971 aged 78 reg no 202068 at WILL
so she married a chap older than her too
(must be the water down in Victoria  sparks em up)
regards jenn

Hello again
I am amazed, you are working wonders. What time is it in Oz ??
It must be an Oz thing to marry older men, or maybe it's just my family. 
That could be Vera in Victoria. When I first found my Franklins I was amazed that Eric, the son of Albert E was still here & in his 80's. I have found a few of my Beaments lived to a ripe old age, one of them was 104 when she died. !!!
I shall persue this further. If you find any more I shall be really grateful.
Maddie (overwhelmed)

Hi Kevin
Many thanks for the link, I shall investigate later, it sounds interesting.
Jenn,
Checked the NAA for Arthur John Sinclair & found his WW2 record. I also had a look at the digitized copy of the A J Sinclair above & I'm sure it's the same persons WW1 record.
If it is I could well have an address for them in 1961.
Kind regards
Maddie
