That is him thanks - Harry Alexander Hunt born 1876 in Richmond, Victoria. In 1849 he and Amy were at 28 Alma Road, St Kilda West - Harry was an Accountant. In 1954 they were at the Old Colonist Homes, North Fitzroy - Batman - Harry was an Accountant
-
They married in Perth in 1902 Reg 1495

Old Colonists Homes has an interesting history - The Old Colonists' Association of Victoria exists as a charity to advocate and provide affordable, safe and dignified independent living facilities for aged Victorians .... Established in 1869 to house the needy. Some of the buildings are heritage listed.

You appear to have taken your information from the online electoral rolls. You have included Batman in the address for the Homes...Batman is the name of the division/electorate.
If you google streetview you will see that 30 Alma Road, St Kilda West is next door to the Jewish Museum of Australia and appears to be flats or apartments...lovely old building.
Have you found the earlier enrolments for Amy and Harry in Perth from 1903?
Are you interested in any of Harry's siblings?
Cheers

Yes I realize that Batman is the electorate. Yes I have them in Perth in 1903 and 1910
Yes I have info now on -
Harry Alexander Hunt and siblings - Mary Ann Hunt 1860 Hotham, George Edward Hunt 1863 Hotham, Thomasine Isabella Hunt 1867 Richmond - died 1867, Thomas Henry Hunt 1868 Richmond, Montgomery Ross Hunt 1871 Richmond and Harry Alexander Hunt 1876 Richmond
Thanks :-*

Have we helped you with any information at all?
Yes I have them in Perth in 1903 and 1910
In 1910 they were in Albany.
They certainly moved house frequently after returning to Melbourne 1919 but perhaps you have access to the online electoral rolls to 1954.
I am wondering what sort of information you were seeking?
Cheers

Added later....Rockhopper while we have your attention.....we have searched for information previously for your DOUGLAS ancestors and perhaps you missed the responses as to date there has been no response from you. :)

A great help and I have sorted out this Harry A Hunt as Harry Alexander Hunt 1876 Richmond - there was another Harry A Hunt but that was Harold (Harry) Arthur Hunt 1880 Geelong
I'll check Douglas - I had no notification
-
An impression - I knew them. Harry had a shock of white hair and Amy wore a hat when she went out
