Elizabeth Cornish. Maybe in Kerang, Vic.

Hi Friends
Elizabeth Mary [poss May] Cornish was certainly born 1879 at Kerang, Vic.
Parents Joseph Henry Cornish and Annie [nee Holmes]
I am seeking her marriage and/or death or offspring.
It is possible that these events could have  occurred eleswhere in Vic.

I have BMD details of her 8 siblings
She was a grandchild of my Convict- married- to -Convict ancestry.
Thanks, Sue

Hi Sue,

I couldn't see Elizabeth on the Vic. discs. Even checked the Inquest Index but nothing. Plenty of Cornish's but not Elizabeth Mary or Poss May.

Perhaps she married interstate?

All the best Magoo

Hi Sparrett

Is it possible that Leah Mary & Elizabeth Mary are one in the same.

There is no birth for a Leah Cornish.

Thanks to you all for your look-ups.

Genni, I had not considered that possibility, but nothing is out of the question in this  business.
I have Leah Mary born 1881, Don't know where.  Strangely though, there is another birth in the same year  1881- George Hardy who died at 14.

I have never heard of twins in the family and so it does suggest a possible miprint or misunderstanding or misinterpretation between the 3 --Elizabeth, Leah and George.

Thanks for you help and thoughts. Sue

On the AVRI George is listed as George Harvey. His reg year was 1881 (as you said) and place was "Kera" as were many of the others. The AVRI covers NSW Vic Tas and WA and there is no sign of a birth for Leah.
