Hi again Jenn
Yep - think I am going to have to order it - was hoping someone could access them without going to the expense....... pensions don't always stretch as far as we would like them to........ but never mind.
The boys were in the St Augustine's Orphanage and Daphne was in Broadmeadows - they both come under the McKillop foundation - and they have been most helpful.   Well, as far as they can under the 100 year rule.

I have the birth cert of someone who was adopted in the early 1900's indexed under the original surname, as you have, but the copy of the entry had the name change notated on it.


Cheers

Genni

No, Jenn - hadn't seen that - you little beauty.
Are you able to give me details please?  That would be great.

Hi Genni - this is getting confusing - Jenn & Genni - thanks for that info - I don't know if she was adopted or not as her father was still alive, only her mother passed away.
Father went off to war - no idea why he would have enlisted when he had all those children to care for - or perhaps that is why - who knows...... also at this stage no idea if the children returned to him when he returned.
Think I will have to send for the certificate - at least that will hopefully solve some problems.
Interesting that the name change was on that certificate - how the rules/laws change over the years is amazing - I always think of adoptee's being in the name of the adoptive parents.
Thanks for your help and info

Hi Jenn
That figures, my family has been slowly expanding - and I do mean slowly.............. I have discovered so many of my grandfather's siblings that were totally unknown to our section of the family -  he was 'kicked out' of the family for marrying out of his religion........ evidently back then if you were 'kicked out' you never returned, nor spoke of your brothers or sisters.............amazing - I always thought families back then were tight knit communities - obviously not.    Just shows, never too old to learn something new.
Thanks again for your help

Hi Cougar

Are you aware Charles Robert Stanley (service no: 1160) enlisted in the Armed Forces - NOK listed as Trevor STANLEY.

Regarding adoptions records they are sealed.  You may have trouble obtaining the record if you request via mail.  When they did the indexes, I don't think they thought about adoptions.

Hi
This family is so confusing - are you saying that Charles Robert enlisted as Trevor????
How on earth did you manage to discover that........
mind you - one of his uncles was David Henry Orbell and ended up as John - so I really shouldn't be surprised.
My goodness - no wonder I can't find any of the so and so's.
Cheers and many thanks,
Cougs
