Florence Holloway married Jack Florance 1915 and had daughter Queenie in 1916

Did she emigrate to Australia in 1909? There's an entry for a Florence Holloway, domestic leaving England for Sydney on the Omrah 11/06/1909.

Is there any information on her family who didn't come to Australia?

Do you have her marriage certificate Tracy? Should give details of her age & father, it would help us to work backwards.
Also you say her sister had a son Rodney March - so March was her married name? Have you tried looking for Holloway/ March marriages on FreeBMD?
-
No don't have marriage certificate?
If married 1915 I say she was born in 1890's
Sorry I am not much help this is what I am looking for details.
Thanks
