SA bmd lookups please

[Adrianne]

Happy New Year everyone

Could someone lookup the death of Emma May BENNETT after 1902. She was married to Henry Thomas Bennett. One of their children, Cyril Henry Thomas Bennett, served in the defence force and in WW1 his NoK is a Priscilla Bennett, mother. So I'm guessing his birth mother died. The last child I have born to them is in 1902. Was wondering if someone could look up this second marriage and any offspring too please.

Thanks
Adrianne

BENNETT Henry Thomas 31 Widow Father John Bennett = BLYTHMAN Perscilla Elizabeth 22 Single father Thomas Blythman 18 Mar 1909 Res of J Bennett Hawker Dist Fro 238 649

Looks like a mistake here. Only one child listed but date appears wrong  The entries appear in birth order yet this entry is listed between Sep 1920 and Mar 1921. These later births only start at 1907 so definitely an error.

BENNETT Harold Roy 18 Jun 1906  Adelaide Dist Ade Symbol S 65A 261 Parents Henry Thomas BENNETT and Perscilla Elizabeth BLYTHMAN

Hmmm... how interesting

Thanks Kris and Jenn

So... Harold Roy Bennett/Blythman was born illegitimately, approx 6 months before the death of his father's wife. And then his parents don't get married for another 2 years .Hmmm
I'm guessing the out of order birth was when he was registered with his father's name?

Thanks
Adrianne

Aha so that later entry with Henry listed as father must have been added in 1920/21 so he either acknowledged he was the father and the cert was altered  or else Henry perhaps adopted Priscilla's Son.....Kris
