I would not rely on Ancestry for researching bdm's in Aus.  I use the available resources ie online indexes in Qld, WA, NSW and the very basic index provided by SA Genealogy however I have the SA, Vic and Tas discs so that also helps ;D.  Just ask Wiggy ;D

When I learn how to scan and post some old photos for restoration you can help then ;D

Cheers ;D

Wow, you guys have been busy.  All I had written next to Ethel's photo (assuming it is her) is
Alec Beart b. 1896
Arthur Maxwell Beart b 1899
Dorothy Heaton Cooper b. 1906.  Father not listed but when you read trove newspaper on the divorce, the neighbour was the Heaton Cooper bloke.  I remember finding another article approx 21yrs later that mentions Dorothy and her father, still in Qld.  I assumed she died from complications after childbirth.  it looks like Beart took his son with him and the daughter stayed with her father.

The poor baby, I'll have to read over that again, I always wondered where he was buried and which sister he was sent to.  Sounds like Ethel was a skeleton in the Gaunt closet, wonder why her father Charles didn't step in to help at that time.  My Grandma knows nothing of her story....

Beart did go to WA to join his brother, so that makes sense.  thanks for finding baby Alec's middle name - Graeme, am now thinking that he may may have been named for his uncle Gray (Marcus Graeme Gaunt).

One more question.  Can anyone find out if Dorothy Heaton Cooper (married name North?) ever had children?  Would love to find some living cousins!
