Thanks Cando & JJ,

I'm sure my friend's mother (88 yrs) will be so glad when she finds out what info. you have given me!

For her age she obviously has a great memory with names i.e. I was able to find out the wife's surname & children's births easily after checking his birth details which she was unsure about & she didn't know he was illegitimate!

Annie

Add..Cando, I saw 2 births with mid initial A i.e. not sure which one & my geography isn't good  ???
South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Cando...

I've edited my last post which you may not have noticed?

I'm unsure which birth is correct for Elsie A but maybe you have seen details which I haven't as I could only go by the indexes?

This is possibly his wife's death notice in the Advertiser.

ROBERTSON    Elsie Alberta   1973

Thanks,

Just realised you had her full middle name on the death but will ask the Librarian for a copy  ;)

Elsie Alberta ROBERTSON was 'of Woodville Gardens' when she died.  This male person was also of Woodville Gardens and ashes have also been removed.  The name is the same as Wm and Elsie's second child.

Have sent a possible newspaper notice listing for his son, via PM.

As they are all deceased surely you could have attached it in pdf to your post.

As there is no proof that the son is deceased, or the one at the cemetery, I thought it best not to mention his name.

Not sure what you think I could have put in a PDF. I simply sent Annie what was available on:

https://www.genealogysa.org.au/resources/online-databases.html

Note I say it is a 'listing', not a notice.
