Hi Margaret,
Here are some funeral notices for Mary Ann GRIEVE from her children
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article15339000
The first is from Mr Alec and Miss Annie GRIEVE
The second is from Mr and Mrs W DUMBROOK (? hard to read)
Ros
adding : I think it must be DUMBRECK
-
This is possibly son Alec's WW1 service record - Alexander James GRIEVE born Aldershot, England and with NOK sister Annie GRIEVE

If so then his sister Annie moves to NZ (letter in the records).
