Hi Judith and Robyn,
Thank you both for your message. I didn't find your message until late last night - in my spam box. Messages from Forums always seem to go into my spam box for some reason.
I ordered Thomas's brother Philip's death certificate from NSW about a week ago so it should reach me within the next couple of weeks. All I have at the moment is that he died in Young, NSW in 1969. I would imagine Judith, I would need the exact date of death for you to look up any newspapers. I really thank you for that. I did look up a newspaper some years ago for another ancestor, and found an article referring to the accident etc. Perhaps for Philip there is an obituary, and like you say, a possibility it could mention Thomas, even though slim. I am really hoping that getting Philip's death cert will give me his Wife's name so that I can try to find his marriage, and if so, possibly, Thomas as a Witness. Again, very slim I know.
Hi Robyn,
I have to go back into the New Zealand site you sent me as so far this morning I have been unable to bring up the death of the Thomas in 1952. I couldn't seem to get the dd/mm/yy put in as they required. I must be doing something wrong. I will try again.
Thank you both again,
Regards,
Audrey
