Hi Lu and Karen,
Not sure I am really getting the hung of this. 
Any way I found Maria. She died in 1899 (13318) at Grandville. Parents Bernard and Ellen. Bernard seems to have died in 1900 no parents listed. There seems to only have one child listed in 1850 Bernard but they had a Michael as well as he had a Bernard who died.
Maria's mother Ellen Quinn died in 1871 (7007) at Young parents Michale and Maria. I can't find a marriage so I don't know here maiden name.
Given Myles brother of Christy McInnes mother of the John, Lee and I are looking for, had another family after his wife died and they had a Godfrey who died in Sth Australia in 1912 I would think it is the right family as it is a pretty unusual name.
There is a John McInnes who was 89 in 1928 who died at Narrandera no parents listed but there are others with no parents and no ages so it really could be any of them and he could have died in another State.

Hi Lu and Karen,
I just rang St Mary Church in Young. They will have a look for me tomorrow when the secretary comes in and ring me back. Can I have the actual marriage date please?

Hi Karen,
May be. She would be in the cemetery if there are any burial records.
The children's baptisms might be in the records.

Hi Karen and Meg
C H O I C E !!
(Great news with that marriage cert Karen).
Blanche Madeline (aged 24 in 1900 = born c. 1876) ... so that is definitely her burial in Auckland. But I wonder why she is there (and not in OZ) ? Perhaps she and Myles had other children between the births of Thelma in 1909 ... and Myles Bernard in 1919 ... and those children remained in NZ ?
(Will see if I can find Blanche's funeral notice ... it might give a clue ?)

Hi Karen and Lu,
The only ones in Victoria are the rest of our lot. No Myles or Miles spare. Could he have died on the ship going back to NZ?
Takes after his father by the sound of things.

Hi
Just having another look at Blanche's cemetery record (Auckland, NZ) ... it doesn't actually say she was a widow ??
(Only states "home duties" ... also has her listed as a "male"   )
AND ... Myles Bernard (living at Glenhuntly, Vic) enlisted (WW2) 28 May 1940 ... he names his mother ? (B. McINNES)as next of kin.
So wonder if that might indicate that his father (Myles) is deceased at that time ?
Ah well, we'll just keep digging.
Lu
