Australia / Brisbane Death Amy GARSTER
« on: Friday 16 June 17 16:49 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I have been researching my grandfather - William Mortimer GARSTER, son of William Reynolds GARSTER. William Reynolds was born in the Shetland Islands and was a seaman that somehow ended up in Brisbane and married Amy Wright at Gertrude Street, Highgate Hill, Brisbane, Australia, on the 3rd of December either 1894 or 1895. She apparently died while giving birth to my grandfather William Mortimer GARSTER I have found reference in the Brisbane Telegraph that Amy died Sept 30 1895. However my Grandfathers obituary list a birth date of 1896 so there is a discrepancy.
Since Amy is my maternal great Grandmother any information would be appreciated. Thank You.
