The Charlotte buried  with William  etc is the first wife of John Hugh Gracie

I  downloaded and read the will  he seemed  to be fairly well off  probably enough to have paid for the headstone, butwe arestill no  closer to parentage of the said William  as  the death index does not have parents name, it was not a requirement in Tas in that time frame


William Gracie died 21/11/1891

Jenn on the Tas Archives it shows a record for Wm GRACIE b. 1821 and dying 1891...now is the age of the deceased shown on the Tas death index.  It was mentioned that the Wm GRACIE this person is seeking was born 1821 Scotland.

Cheers who had better bow out before mistranscribing anymore dates ;)

Hi Jenn,
Well that is good to know who Charlotte was :D

KAMA has not told us the name of her William's parents,[ but has not said she does not know either!]
So we have no parental names to compare with each other... either from the findings or from KAMA's knowledge.

Cando,  Thanks for the clarification .
Alfred John STOTT of Leederville  died in 1944 at is at KARRAKATTA alone. I think.
He enlisted in 1916, b. 1889 and was living at his father's home in Leedervile.
There is no sign of a death or burial for a woman named Christina STOTT.

Just adding for clarification
GRACIE  CHRISTINA W  PERTH  1065  F  1927  STOTT  ALFRED J

Cando I would have  to agree with  you that  the death in 1891  of William Grace is  no doubt  the  right  one,  I  had only  mention that there was another William Grace in  the  mix so to speak.

He left 7thousand pounds plus  so  pretty weelloff for  then  plus  shares in the Bank of Tasmania  and his breweing shares.

There is a marriage in 1894 in Tasmania of John Hugh Gracie marrying Gertrude Herring.  So  I  wonder did she  died in WA

Hi Jenn,
Some of these things have been mentioned up the thread up a bit.
We had not seen the marriage to Gertrude, but she has been found on the electoral roll in WA.

Hi Jenn,
Would love to know what happened to her.
Maybe she divorced John and went back to Tassie :D
