NSW Electoral Roll 1903 CANOBOLAS, polling at Lucknow

Alfred Dixon LANE, of Lucknow, barman

NO others with that surname enrolled for that polling place.

At various NSW State Records Office online indexes:

There's an Alfred LANE, aged 18, a passenger on the Chimborazo, arriving Sydney in 1885.

There's an Alfred Dixon LANE deceased estates file with date of death 9 April 1936.
There's also a Charles Dixon LANE deceased estates file with date of death 7 July 1943

There can be interesting papers in those files, sometimes there's even BDM certificates.

Hello
Here's Alfred Dixon Lane's death Orange NSW 1936
Charles Dixon Lane 1943 Orange NSW
No sign of older brother George on the deaths there so perhaps he didn't go with them or died before that.
The last Electeral roll for Alfred is 1933 at 47 Prince St hotel keeper Orange
No sign of anyone with him on there.
Charles Dixon Lane Lewis Ponds post master 1943 Orange
Again no sign of a wife or children.

There is a Dixon Clive Lane born 1912 and died 2000 in Orange .He married a Ellen May Meehan in Mayfield in 1936.
I can't find a birth but with that name it's a bit surprising if he's not related.

Sorry still typing when other person posted.

hi and thanks for your email - yes those messages were from me - Esther was married  before Abraham Lane - to William Hawkins who died 1858 - I was tying to trace her and her son - it is through roots chat that I was emailed that she had remarried and had gone to Australia with Abraham and her two sons from that marrriage - thanks - jennie
