Thank you Mini
Also just located death notice for  Reg Geo Clyde  Hunter which also gave his birth: 21 Oct 1945 d. 1 Jun 2006. He and *** would have had a son *** as per the Will reference that you provided.

Not sure if you do have the actual death notice? Have sent it by PM.......

I think you should remove the names of the possible/probable living above. [reply #16]

George Baker  (Ethel's first husband) must have died before 7/12/1918, the date Ethel married John Reg as she is listed as a widow on their marriage cert.

Ethel May Evans marr George Henry Baker 7/1/1912 Bethnal Green

Ethel May Evans marr John R Hunter 7/12/1918 West Ham Essex

I have both certificates if anyone is interested.
I have no death for George Baker. Perhaps he was killed in WW1?

See reply #12...

This states that J. R. Hunter was Australian born. [See page 19 & also page 25]. Also on page 25 is the name of his mother "Southern" living in Victoria.

You are certainly a great help . Yes, this is the James William Hunter, the brother of John Reginald Hunter whose WW1 record and Will in NZ you found for me.
 I got the correct birth date from Aust WW1 records, although he enlisted under a different name William Andrew Johnson. The Beec would stand for Beechworth where the birth was registered. The mother was living in a Chinese Camp. One of her earlier partners was a Chinese worker drowned in the nearby Ovens River.
 I am doing a project on James William Hunter and photos have emerge of John Reginald Hunter of NZ visiting Australia, so I am trying to show the connection of the two brothers.

Thank you
These are a number of the siblings; some with Chinese features; others not; albeit, I believe Martha Hunter was still residing in the Chinese Camp after her partner Charley Ah Hing was drowned 2 Sep 1878 (two of her early children were his Lily Anna 1876 and Louise Ellen 1877).
A fascinating story.

Hi there All!!
This evening I had decided to try and search for information on my grandfather (Jack Reginald Hunter) and my great grandfather (John Reginald Hunter) as I have no confirmed info on them now my father (Reginald George Clyde Hunter) has passed :(……and I can’t believe my luck finding this chat!! I am so excited I have not read through it completely as yet but thank you all from the bottom of my heart for this information :).
I do know some information that I can recall from past conversations with Dad if anyone has any questions, but what I have read you all know more than me LOL!
So I am Cherie Hunter and I have an older brother Dean Reginald Hunter.
