looking for ?????
« on: Wednesday 10 April 13 04:08 BST (UK) »
hello everyone,   my current information, is very little........I am looking for a CATHERINE ROSE HOLLIER. 1854-1928.   I have MURRUMBEENA as a place she may have been, maybe birth ?? maybe death ??
As far as I can tell, her husband was a ALBERT AUSTIN HEARN, I have no dates for him, but may have lived in the MOE area.
any information, any help, in finding out more about these two people will be greatly appreciated.

kind regards from heather

There is a Catherine Hollier who died aged 74 at Murrumbeena  in 1928 # 11773 - est birth 1854

 But it says her father's name was Jeremiah  Simmonds, and mother's name Ann - no maiden name given -  - so ?? Hollier?

A Catherine Simmonds married Fred Hollier in Victoria  in 1873 # 1388.

- which would fit with her birth quite well wouldn't it.

 Catherine was born Brighton  1854 to Jeremiah Simmonds and Ann nee White  # 962.

Does this sound right?

oops repeating info - Bright short for Brighton which is very close to Murrumbeena

Can't find any connection with Albert Hearn though.

I did find an Albert Hearn married to Ethel Johnstone - (actually several Albert Hearns so  hard to tell which would be yours) - but as she died 'Hollier' she probably didn't remarry.

Perhaps Albert is the one born in 1868 in Colac?
