Title: Rosina Blaxwell (nee Kafer) 1886-1957 NSW
Post by: Printer on Thursday 03 March 16 03:07 GMT (UK)
Hello,

I am trying to find the names and dates of family for Rosina Kafer (1886-1957) who married John M Blaxell (1881-1916). In 1916 when John M Blaxell died, according to a funeral notice (1 Sep 1916) he left a widow and two children.

I would like to know the names of the two children and any dates please. Rosina Blaxell also later  married a James W Newman. Thank you.

Hi, Cannot help you with any information about Rosina Kafer's family after she was married. However, a Rosina Kafer born 1886 was my grandfather's sister. George Kafer. Parents; Jacob F Kafer 1846-1927 and Annie Maria Baker 1854-1941. I know that does not help going forward but it may give some background information.

Hi procomputers & Jamjar,

As a result of you both adding to my posting, I have spent a few hours today sorting out the Kafer and Blaxwell family, and managed to find a few additions, plus interesting notices and reports from Trove newspapers. Thank you.
