Victoria look up please

[Cougar]

Hi, is there anyone who could possibly look up the details of

Footscray, Victoria, Aust, ref 29083 in 1916
Birth of Daphne Alice Stanley
The parents listed are Chas Jno Stanley and Mary Elizabeth Williams - which should read Whillance........
I would love the exact date of birth and if a marriage or death could be found - that would be gold...........
Thanks

Hi Cougar,

You can research the Victorian BDM index yourself at:

http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/servlet/IdxSearch?action=getHistIdxSearchCriteria

It won't cost you anything to search and it's only $0.99 to view each page of results. 

You can download an uncertified record of an event directly to your computer for $17.50 if you have the registration number and year.  It's the same cost if you order an official certificate to be posted out.

Cheers, Brisgirl

Hi Brisgirl
Thanks for that - I googled and obviously missed that link.
Cheers Cougar

Hi Cougar, I checked my Vic discs and I can't see a death for a Daphne or Daphne Alice (any surname) with those parents up to and including 1985.

Drat - another of those mysterious Stanleys of mine.
So if no death with Daphne / Daphne Alice with an alternative surname - wonder if that means she moved interstate or like her ggggrandfather - just appeared, or in this case, disappeared into thin air.
Thank you so much for that - might have to widen my search.
I know she was put in an orphange as an infant (but they have no confirming paperwork) - so possibility I suppose that she had a name change, although her brothers didn't.
Again, many thanks for your time and effort.

Hi Jenn
Have been in touch with the orphanage - no parents recorded for the child we think is Daphne Alice Stanley b 1916 in Footscray, Vic. which is why I need her full date of birth.
Have got the boys - because of the 100 year rule, only information regarding the elder, but do have the names of the three of them - so they are OK -
May Elizabeth Caroline is a sister and no idea what became of her or her siblings, I have not been able to discover.
Their mother died in 24 Dec 1916 which could have been childbirth related if Daphne was born 4 Dec 1916 - but this needs to be confirmed.
The first three boys all born Orbost, ie Charles Robert, (orphanage)
Laurence Arthur (born & Died 1907), Lindsay or Leonard (orphanage)(depending on which record) but no further details aside from their births.
The two girls  born Footscray and Walter (orphanage) born Newport on the 7 May 1911.
Needless to say all help is gratefully received.
Cheers, Cougar

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.
