I have a photograph of my grandfather with the above photographers stamp on it.
Did early photographers collections get archived?

Australia / Certificates Received - Victorian
« on: Friday 15 November 13 01:21 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,
I have received a couple of Death and Marriage Certificates today. Not only does it have the information relating to my ancestors, but there are several other entries attached to the paperwork I received.

Would it be ok to post something in the Australian Research section listing their particulars? They may help someone else.

Canada / Re: William Candide LETICQ born 1835 Canada, Died 1868 Melbourne, Australia

Ok, So I have spent some time and $$ going through Victorian BDM's.

These variations in the Leticq/Letiecq/Letieq/Letique/leticque are certainly giving me brain strain!

I could not find any Marriage for William/William candid. I tried looking under his spouses name but hers too is confusing and I couldn't find anything for her either.

I now have my great grandmothers marriage certificate and it lists Her parents as Candid Leticq -Labourer & Emma Brush (looks like Brush) with no other information. I have come across Emma listed as Brushe/Bruche on other online trees.

I then found a death index for a Condede Leticg in 1868 so I got a copy of that and all it states is Condede Leticq, a carpenter, 33 years, died Melbourne Hospital 1868 parents unknown.

Im thinking this could be his death, it appears others whom have listed him on line are using this as his death.  I see what you mean Polar bear about trees already online, unless you have an accurate paper trail people tap into any tree really. 

Now I still have not located a marriage or immigration records for him. 

Thanks again everyone, I will figure this guy out eventually, the story I have is that My great grandmother was French, when people see her picture they tell me she looks like an Indian. Im dying to know who they really are.

Thanks for that name variation Sami and Polar Bear, I have come across Joseph Sebastian on a mundia site, but there was no connection with a candide, however you have come across this so Maybe there is.
I am about to invest a few bucks on Vic BDM's so I can view the detail of persons in the index, and make a purchase,  Fingers Crossed I can find a marriage or death for him.

Keep you posted..

No jorose, I have no documentation of their marriage yet.  I found my great grandmother on Mundia, linked to a William Candide Leticq (varied spellings). But no detail of his parents. I have spent so much money on certificates thus far, the last I need on a couple of people is on ancestry I think, I just don't have the cash to sign up, I joined years ago to see if I could link up but there were no records then, but now so many are researching so much more info is available.

Thanks all for the welcome and so far my very first day on here has been very rewarding, My dead ends have new leads and greensleaves I thought I would stop when I traced my Australian genes, but im almost done and already im looking at those from abroad and that was due to name changes too.
Thanks again, who knows what tomorrow will bring.
