Eileen Myra Dent - Death from Falling off train in Sydney Approx 1948

[Kisschick64]

I am chasing any information re the death of Eileen Myra Dent - Seamstress in her late 20's who fell/was pushed off a Sydney train around 1947/8. I have searched Trove for a newspaper article on this but come up empty. Surely it was in the newspapers!! Also Any other info relating to her Please.....I have found information suggesting she may have gone to prison or to the "inebriates home" in Perth WA prior to her death ( around 1943) - All info appreciated.

Blimey!!  You people are amazing.....Please tell me how you did that!!
Eileen Was my Grandfathers sister...Parents George Perkins and Eileen Mary....She lived in Perth WA all her early life but was always in trouble - she went to court numerous times for drunk and disorderly and was threatened with gaol. Im not sure if she ever went. I found reference to her getting 3 months but Im not sure if it was her. She went to Sydney to live with her brothers family around 1944 and continued to get into trouble. She liked the drink and men and maybe drugs and when she died in the train accident it was always wondered if she was pushed as we had heard that some guy wasn't too happy with her. We were never told she was married, which explains why I have not been able to find her. Did someone say she had kids?? I am ecstatic at this information and might now be able to find more.
I am def coming back here with all my tricky Tree people...lol.....Thankyou so much <3
