Title: O’keeffe
Post by: Freya Ellingsen on Friday 06 July 18 10:54 BST (UK)

Hi,
  Looking for the death of Sarah O’keeffe nee Farquhar.
She was born in 1884, Lint Victoria. She firstly married a Brennan then in 1930 married Arthur O,keeffe.

Thanks

You probably have this information but she divorced Arthur Okeefe in 1935 (Trove nla) and there is a record for a Sarah Okeefe living 1937 Parkdale Vic with another female ? daughter. After that nothing in Victoria.
