1943 Electoral Roll.

Colin Henry Biggin, Pricess Highway, Geards Hill, mechanic.
Daisy Florence Biggin, Princess Highway, Geards Hill, home duties.

Cant see Vincent Francis Jones on the 1943 ER at this point in time.

Hi Gerry & Wivehoe

Yes I saw the death of Leslie John Jones with parents being Vincent and Daisy. So it looks like they separated 1937-1943.

Thanks for all your input, very much appreciated.

Apologies I have to go out for a couple of hours, will sign in on my return

bye E

1933, 1936, 1937 electoral rolls show these people all with the address Dunbible, Murwillumbah
Alan BIGGIN, banana grower
Colin Henry BIGGIN, planter
Linton Roy BIGGIN, planter (not in 1936)
Sarah Margaret BIGGIN, hd

The next electoral roll, as found by Gerry, is dated 1943 and shows Colin Henry BIGGIN, mechanic and Daisy Florence BIGGIN, hd at Princes Highway, Geards Hill (near or in Wollongong I think)

As wivenhoe says it is possible that they did not marry at all.

Hi

Slowly getting the pieces of the puzzle together, I apologise for having to ask for just one more lookup of Australian electoral rolls for 1980 .  I think I have found the couple and their son Thomas. Not sure why there are two entries?

Australian Electoral Rolls, 1903-1980

Name:    Daisy Florence Biggin
Residence: 1980 - city, Werriwa, New South Wales
   
Name:    Daisy Florence Biggin
Residence:    1980 - city, Richmond, New South Wales

Likewise there are two entries for her husband (still havent found the marriage)

Name:    Colin Henry Biggin
Residence:    1980 - city, Werriwa, New South Wales

Name:    Colin Henry Biggin
Residence:    1980 - city, Richmond, New South Wales

and by the looks of it their son Thomas Heywood BIGGIN - perhaps at the same residence in Richmond in 1980?

Name:    Thomas Heywood Biggin
Residence: 1980 - city, Richmond, New South Wales.


Would appreciate any information, many thanks.

Sometimes there are two entries because people move and re-enrol at the new address and not removed from the old address in time for publication.  Judith

Thanks Judith,

Yes I agree, hoping a lookup with reveal just a tad more especially given that their son Thomas is on one of the enrolments at Richmond:)

Hi

The Richmond Electoral District entries have all 3 at 6 Tincogan rd, Mimbmby (sic)  while the Werriwa Electoral District address for Colin & Daisy is Coates Park Rd, Cobty (sic)

Oh, sorry - I didn't read it carefully!  They seem to have moved about a bit!  You have 1943 so here are the next ones that are online.  All are for Colin Henry and Daisy Florence BIGGINS.  Occupation for Daisy is consistently home duties so I have only listed for Colin

Electoral rolls:
1954 farmer at Cobbitty (near Camden)

1958 gardener at Vale View (near Yass)

1963 clerk at 131 Goodwin St, Lyneham ACT
at same address also
Thomas Heywood BIGGIN, machine operator
Faith Hilda Grace BIGGIN, hd

1968 project manager at Watsonia St, Coffs Harbour Jetty
and at same address
Alan Ernest BIGGIN sawmiller
Alan BIGGIN builder  (edit: are these two entries for the same Alan??)
Edna Emily BIGGIN  home duties.

1980 at Coates Park, Cobbitty ( district of Werriwa) ; no occupation given for either, no other BIGGIN  at the same address
1980 6 Tincona St, Mullumbimby (district Richmond) no occupations given
at same address:
Thomas Heywood BIGGIN  - no occupation given

The Mullumbimby entry is a 'supplementary' roll so my guess is that they moved to Mullumbimby for Cobbitty.

(I pass the end of the street in Lyneham almost every day - the house would be the same as the one there now which you can find on Googlemap!
