This doesn't help much except that I think it shows his father was also known as Isaac ALEXANDER

Death of a possible brother to Frank  ...

1981 reg#1232 ALEXANDER Thomas George, father Isaac ALEXANDER, mother Eliza Jane MULHOLLAND

I haven't found a birth for Thomas yet ...

I would be looking at whether he was their child or not, maybe he was taken in.

This needs to be looked at i think

QLD birth index 

1908   B16634   
Frank Isaac   Andress   
Mother    Rosa Annie Andress

Date on above bmd is 15th March 1908

Think the above isnt the right birth for your Frank. Found a burial for the above one. Oh well it worth a look at.

FRANK ISAAC ANDRESS ( - 1999)
Passed away on 28 July 1999
Aged 91 years

Coincidence??

Poster states her Frank was born Boonah Qld

On Frank Isaac Andress's plague it states wife's name as Eva

Then Ryerson index has this

ANDRESS   Eva Emily   
Probate notice   21JAN2000      
late of Fassifern Retirement Village, Boonah, Qld, formerly of 'Lyndale', Boonah, Qld   
Courier Mail (Brisbane)   21JAN2000

Im wondering if Frank Isaac Alexander is infact Andress and married a third time using his birth name ???

Ancestry E/R has a Frank Isaac Andress in QLD in 1934 so maybe the above is wrong  ??? He would have been using the Alexander surname then.

Gone and done my own head in now  :-[

Ancestry also has the year of marriage for Frank and Eva and i dont have any further access.

NAME:    Frank Isaac Andress
SPOUSE:    Eva Emily Holloway
