Dorothy Marion Alice Boys
« on: Sunday 24 July 16 05:14 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

I am searching for any information regarding Dorothy Marion Alice Boys, daughter of Walter Boys and Marion Selina Saunders.  Born 1893 in Kapunda, South Australia reg 530/381.  I have no information about her life and would love to know if she married, had children and when she passed away.

Thanking you.

Hi

Not sure if you have seen this, but Trove has a death notice for her mother Marion in 1949. Children listed include "Allie" which could well be your Dorothy Marion Alice. It seems that she was unmarried at that time.

Cheers
Karenlee

Thomas Mold Boys, marriage: http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/59897099?searchTerm=%22Walter%20Boys%22&searchLimits=sortby=dateAsc|||l-category=Family+Notices|||l-state=South+Australia

Walter's sister-in-law, Sarah Jane, of Victoria? http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/213257311?searchTerm=%22Walter%20Boys%22&searchLimits=sortby=dateAsc|||l-category=Family+Notices|||l-state=South+Australia

Interesting, did Walter marry sisters? His first wife's death: http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/11564236?searchTerm=%22Walter%20Boys%22&searchLimits=sortby=dateAsc|||l-category=Family+Notices|||l-state=Victoria

I noticed on an online family tree that Janet's surname was unknown. Here it her marriage to Alfred:

1919   280/734   Alfred Frank Boys to Janet Wilhelmina Morgan district Robe

If you haven't already seen it, there is an advertisement re: Alfred, probate mentioning her name on Trove.

Great finds jamjar, thank you.

No double ups when it comes to the marriages - there is Walter the father and Walter the son - that's why it was looking like there were two wives.

Thank you :)

Actually, Walter BOYS was a thirty year old widower ??? when he married  Marion Selina SAUNDERS on 19 Mar 1889. Ade / 158/937
