Vic. death look up Emma Argus
« on: Wednesday 08 November 06 04:03 GMT (UK) »
Hi All
Emma married John Argus in about 1879.
This was his second marriage.

I think she was Emma Woolacott

Could someone kindly look for her death so I can work out who her parents were.  I am pretty certain this was in Victoria.

Hi Sue

Yes, Emma WOOLACOTT (born: Fitzroy) married John ARGUS (born: Preston) in 1879 Reg: 4731

Children born in the Coburg, Devenish (benalla) & Fitzroy.

But I can't find a birth for her or a death for either them or their children in Victoria.

regards


Genni

Sue

It looks like she died in NSW  in 1923 in Wagga Wagga.  Parents: John & Unknown FROST.

Found the following family in Vic.

John Woolacott & Mary Frost - children born Collingwood and Brunswick - no Emma though.

Regards

Genni

Hi Jenn and Genni,
Well goodness me.  Will these twists never end.
Today was the first I ever heard of her when  a helpful researcher from Devenish sent information which happened to mention a 'sister named Emma Woolacott who married Argus.

For years I thought I had all of John and Mary [nee Frost] Woolacott's children all pegged.

I can't explain the lack of birth registration.  Any ideas?
Sue

Thanks Jenn
This is very hard to fathom.
Genni [THANK YOU!! ]has found the death of Emma Argus in NSW, Wagga Wagga
I can't get it on bmd nsw, yet [working on it]
But strangely, I CAN see birth on bmd nsw
 
1890, Louis W. Argus,  Mother.Emma, Father John, no district in NSW shown.
This, despite spelling difference, is almost certainly the same child
