Speaking of tangents  ;D

Looks like I might have found another unregistered son of Alexander Chrystie  :-\

George Wade Chrystie (born Collingwood) m Annie Larkin 1899

Just starting to look into this one further but it took my eye with the middle
name of Wade - which is Alexander's mothers maiden name and then when I couldn't
see any birth registration.......hmmmmmmmm

Perhaps that ones for another day

Ahha Raylen wondered if he was one of your  mob :)

but  I  cannot see a death for him or his wife  nor are they on  the electoral rolls available from A......y

See his childrens deaths in Victoria though.

And another confusion!!
Have just read the service record of Alexander William Hyman CHRYSTIE, born 1897 Richmond Vic, enlisting in Perth in 1915.  He gives his NOK as "mother, (father dead) Maude Edwards" at a Perth address.  In the spaces for parent consent are the signature of 'Maude Edwards' and "stepfather W T Edwards" in the place for father to sign.

Cando found the following marriage in a previous post: From WA Indexes
CHRYSTIE    Alice M L     
EDWARDS    William T             
District Perth     Reg#239  1907

So - it looks as though this Alexander W H CHRYSTIE was Alice's son registered under her CHYRSTIE surname and she later married William T Edwards.  However who is the person listed as Alexander WH CHRYSTIE's mother as "Maude Edwards" ??

Is this another name change for this lot? Or is it someone else entirely and Alice had died by then??
And boy did your mob get around!! Devon, Jamaica and lots of Oz states!!

The sons for Selina HALL give birth places as Heathcote June 1914, and Heathcote South Nov 1906 so that seems to pin Selina down to living in Heathcote at least from her marriage to her death!

Just another snippet which may have nothing to do with anything except co-incidence  - in the National Library beta newspaper site searching using "CHRYSTIE" there is a news item in the Hobart Courier 8 Dec 1845, headed "Foreign Intelligence" which mentions an "Inspector CHRYSTIE"  involved in a 'serious disturbance' in Jamaica.  One wonders why it would be of interest to people in Hobart?  Anyhow perhaps it is your original Alexander's father.....

Her name was Alice Maude Louisa nee HYNAM  perhaps  she was known as Maude

Hello to you all  :)

Thanks for those Tapley deaths cando.

Jenn, It looks like that might be the case with Alice/Maude

Judith, I did see that and I will see if there is anything to be found about
Inspector Chrystie in Jamaica.  One of Alexanders sisters was born in Jamaica
and it's possible Alexander was too. 

Thanks to everyone for their input on this one.
I've still got plenty to do it seems  :-\
