Guys

Looking for the birth of Flora A Davey who married Robert Vautin in Hughenden Qld 1922.
Also her parents details and other siblings if possible. Can't find any details in QLD or NSW.

Thanks in advance.

Thanx once again.  :) I was looking under Flora. Didn't even think of Florence. In my defense, it was late at nite and I had been on the computer since
the morning... :o
Much appreciated.
Cheers

Jon

EDIT: - As a matter of interest the marriage of the parents doesnt' show up on the online BDM QLD but is on the BDM CD...!

Hi,

I wonder whether WILLIAM JOHN DAVEY married again.
This marriage took place 17th Feb 1909

In 1909 reg. 531   Davey,William John to Gosling, Annie


His death was later the same year as posted by MERLIN.

It is a little unlikely, .... ???but with three young daughters....??

Interesting. I am sure with three young children he would have been looking for another wife. I wonder why it took him 6 years. Rather a long time in those days but then again they were in far North Qld and perhaps there was a paucity of eligible women.
William's Ist wifes parents came to a very sad and unfortunate end: -

The Queenslander Dec 15 1877 - On Tuesday last [11/12/1877] A man named Krutz, who lives at Thornborough, shot his wife through the head with a revolver. She died immediately. He then lodged two bullets in his own head, and lies in a precarious state.

It appears that 4 of the 5 children left behind in this bitter tragedy and ranging from 1 year to 12 years of age man have been adopted out as I can find no trace of their marriages or deaths aside from Albertina who was the eldest at 17 at the time and who married William Davey 4 years later. Perhaps it was Albertine that looked after her siblings?

Cheers and thanks for the follow thru with the extra information.
