Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Decipher WW1 group Egypt Frank Fitzgerald

« on: Thursday 30 October 14 10:20 GMT (UK) »

I had this image sent to me of our cousin Frank, he is the one with a cross lower right hand corner. the other soldiers have names written in pen near their hats. It would be good to find out the others names and send copy of photo to their descendants. Hope you can help. Let me know if you would like me to send cropped photo of each soldier as I had to reduce the image size to send this one.
Thank you

Australia / S.A deaths

« on: Sunday 29 July 12 08:19 BST (UK) »

Hi there,
I am looking for the death of Patrick Fitzgerald who arrived in Adelaide with wife Margaret Quinlan and 7 children aboard the Trevelyn in Oct 1875. Margaret Fitzgerald drowned in a tank at Alma in 1885 and many of the children went to Melbourne and then to W.A. I searched the Vic bdm with no luck so would really appreciate it if there is a kind soul who is able to search Adelaide bdm's please. He was born in Ireland in the 1840's
Thank you
Cheers
