I'm not sure if they were bigamists but
they sure have created one heck of a mess.


Not sure where I can go now.
1. No births registrations found -  so no certificates to check
2. Death certificates will possibly give ages of children, but, see point 1  :D

Any advice from you experts what path I should take now?

Raylen,

hard to say  which way  to go,  perhaps  the death certificate for Eveline Chrystie, that information  should have been  given  by Alexander.

Great find cando  :)  ( details copied thanks)

And interesting to see the alternate spelling of Christie

I was going to mention that when Jenn found the
burial in Gilgandra Cemetery.  There are other burials there
in the name of Christie with christian names that seem relevant
to this family.  
I also have plenty of other Christies in my tree, so I'm wondering if the
spelling has been changed.

I have been able to get a transcription of the burials at Box Hill cemetery
Church of England  Grave 205
CHRYSTIE
Alethea Blanche 1948   Age 72
Alexander Charles 1902    Age 30
Eveline 1901   Age 32
Alexander 1916   Age 77
James Edward 1918   Age 1

Raylen I assume the age should be 62?  Sorry about being nit picky :-[

Easily done with the speed this thread has progressed...with all the tangents ;)  I was actually thinking there must have been another birth ;)
