Sorry, it is Albert Drury I am seeking, The Alfred is an error on my part. Thanks for picking that up.
No, it is Myrniong, a town near Bacchus Marsh in Vic. where he was born. Maribyrnong is a suburb of Melbourne. Do the wedding certificates state if a parent is Deceased? If so I would think the daughter's biographer would have picked that up, but may be worth a look. Vera Grace, age 40, wed Cyril Frederick Jolliffe in 1942, the year her mother died, they lived at Yallourn. Albert's wife died in 1942 as Elizabeth Drury, so she had not married again, there is no mention of Albert in her obit.
How she raised 2 young children is unknown.
