I cannot find any connection for Alice to the MOSS/BROOKS family who lived at Brighton Vic.

Have found the family on the 1851 census.  Two marriages for both George Henry and wife Ann.  She was previously married to a RUSH prior to her marriage to George BROOKS.  Also a couple of online trees which don't show the RUSH BROOKS marriage however it is on free bdm. I always treat online trees with great caution.

Apologies for taking the thread on a wild goose chase

Communication with a BROOKS researcher who had researched the MOSS/BROOKS family in Victoria along with a William BROOKS, bricklayer, born London and wife Margaret Alice MONTGOMERY who had a dau Alice born Victoria who died at Ballarat in 1935 although the death index has father as John.  The researcher is not related to either families.

Father Brooks John  Mother Margaret MONTGOMERY

And this appears to be Alice's 2nd marriage - with the two marriage certs you could compare signatures, and parents' details etc.

BROOKS Alice born Camberwell
MOORE John born Tasmania
1885  Reg#5670

They were having children from 1878 in the Western district of Victoria and married after the birth of their dau.

thank you for the replies have had problems with my net due to electricity outrages but have enjoyed reading the replies now have some more information. George Glover and Alice Moss were married 7-4-1869 at Waverly, Nunawading, Victoria He gave his birthplace as London, she gave Camberwell, London as hers. Alfred Glover was my grandfather, for some reason when he moved from Gippsland to the western district they changed their name to Lovett. even the adult sons never said why and the younger children never spoke of it. my father was Walter Edward Lovett/Glover he is named Glover on his birth certificate but went into the navy as Lovett. I cannot get beyond George Glover 1824-14-12-1929 and Alice Moss 1850 no death date. There are 2 children named on Alfreds birth certificate, Margaret  and Harry but I have no idea about their lives.

Another researcher attempting to eliminate the MOSS/BROOKS family also researched the George GLOVER/Alice BROOKS/MOSS family as well.  I have given you her findings.  You need to purchase the MOORE/BROOKS marriage certificate to compare
1.  Age and place of birth [Index says Camberwell]
2.  Names of parents including mother's maiden name and father's occupation.
3.  Alice's signature

Would you please type up ALL the details on the 1869 marriage certificate please.
Was Alice's father named William and was he a brickmaker.

You have the advantage of having the marriage certificate with all the details.  It is often the small details that help break down walls.  Once you have given us ALL the details on the marriage cert we may be able to help with George's death  You have written he was born c1829.  What was his age on Alfred's birth certificate please.

A possibility....
