Green Family around Melbourne area

[lesleyegreen]

Hi Everyone
Looking for David Green (born 1825, Lochmaben, Scotland, died Fitzroy, Victoria in 1897) who went to Australia before 1860. His elder son, Joseph Green was born around 1860 and died in Fitzroy, Victoria in 1920. David Green married Sarah Ann Saunders in Castlemaine in 1861.Younger son Robert was born there in 1862. Not sure if Sarah was mother to both boys but they both predeceased her as her will names her grandchildren as beneficiaries. At the time of David Greens death(1897) his son Robert was living in Townsville, Queensland and working  as a builder.
Any information about this family would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Thanks for that information Jamjar,
Just wondering what happened to Robert Green born 1862, disappeared after 1897 when his father died. Have managed to follow elder son joseph and his family through documentation and archives online. Do not know where to start with Robert.
Also when and how did David Green come to Australia?.............. I know by ship!!
Regards
Lesley

I checked for any Robert Green death in 1901 on QLDBDM and there is only the one. Therefore, the notice re cause of death is most likely the correct one.

Near bottom of 4th column: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article19115637

He was a carpenter, see Intestate Estates, 5th column : http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article214340841

Was Joseph's wife Charlotte Trottman Binstead? If so she died only 3 days after Joseph.
