Title: Descendants of Harry William Wiltshire 1886-1965
Post by: Jackiemh on Monday 25 April 16 06:56 BST (UK)
Hello
I am trying to trace descendants of Harry William Wiltshire and Lucy Jane Smith who lived in Five Dock, NSW around the period 1930-1960. They had several children -  born after 1920. I am trying to clear up a mystery relating to the Wiltshire and Baylis families.

Jackie,

    There is a probate file http://investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/Entity.aspx?Path=\Item\1191148
which I can photograph for you next visit, if you wish.

   If you pm me your e-mail address I can send you his death notice if you don't have it.

   To remove the names of the children, hit the modify button above your post and backspace over the names.

regards
  Ros

adding : there is a death notice and probate notice for Lucy Jane WILTSHIRE - probate is too recent to appear on online indexes but I can check if is there (and photograph if it is) if you wish

Welcome to Rootschat Arthur.

When did Harry come to Australia?

Do you have his death certificate? If so what information is on it re:wives?

Did he have children to his first wife?

Welcome to this site, Arthur
Harry's first wife was Ida Elizabeth Lucy Sanderson. They married in 1915 in Melbourne, reference 10285.
Ida was born in 1885 in Fulham (Mar qtr 1a 198 I believe) but died in 1918 in  Hawthorn, Victoria ref 1673.
The reason I was trying to find descendants of Harry, apart from being part of my family, is some references made by one of his daughters to my aunt.
I can send a PM with more details if you are interested.
Jackie
