Hi everyone that has helped me with this query - just to let you know that I have both the marriage certicates AND the divorce records on the way to me.
Anyone looking for divorce records there is a very nice gentleman at the supreme court of Adelaide that has gone out of his way to help me and it only cost $10 plus photocopy money.
A bargain at 10 times the price.
I pity the postman this week, I am going to drive him crazy this week.
Ciao Megan

Hi could anyone tell me where the information comes from in the Biographical index of South Australia and who compiled it. (i am really hoping this is not a stupid question).
Is it a reliable source of information?
Thank you

Hi, if anyone out there is heading in to the state library would you be able to do a look up in the Newspaper called the 'Register' for 1907
I am looking for George Wilks Obit which is in the 13th July 1907 paper
Meningie P9d.

If no such paper exists could you let me know, I have tried to do a search on the net to see if there are archieves for this paper, but I could not see for sure if there was or not.

I am hoping the obit might give me alittle more info about him.
Does the South Australian Death Certifcates give you the amount of time someone has been in Australia?  I have the info from the BISA but it only gives a rough idea of when he come over and I have searched the passenger lists online and have had no luck at all in finding him.

Thank you
Megan

Hi Kris, thank you for that,
You know famly stories you can only believe 10% but I am wondering then if the twins come after Lorna, there is a 2 year and 2 month gap between Lorna and the next child William.

Hi could someone check for a couple of deaths for me (again Meggles, I hear you say) the parents are - Stanley Harrold Martin and mother Myrtle Annie Savage

Lorna Margaret Elizabeth Martin born feb 20 1916 died as a young baby,
Charles Raymond Martin born 21 april 1919 - died as a young baby

Also can you get the dates of stillborn babies.  My grandmother's first babies were twins she did not know this at the time and family stories tell me that she went into labour, went to hospital and delivered one stillborn baby, they sent her home and 1 week later she had alot of pain, went back to the hospital and delivered another stillborn baby.  Would there be record of this.  Stanley and Myrtle married sometime in 1915 and the 2nd child was born in feb 1916 so it would of had to of been early 1915.

Thank you
Megan

I will keep a look out for the book for you but I know of some people that have been searching for about 6 years for it.
Alot of people of written to Edward Martin who wrote the book to see if he would do another reprint of it - but he has put alot of other books together such as 'families of Stithians' and at this stage has no time but hopefully in the future.
I am more than happy to give you what ever information I can, so just keep sending me message's for look ups and I will reply.

Hope your New years eve was a good one.

Megan
