Gertrude Augusta RAVENING - Parkes NSW
« on: Thursday 10 June 10 09:53 BST (UK) »
Hi,

One of my relatives Gertrude Augusta Ravening (nee Mitchell) moved to Australia some time after the 1911 census. From what I have found there are records of the family being on the electoral rolls in Parkes in NSW in the 1930s I think, but I can't find out any further details. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.

Markyb74,

If you lookup the NSW BDM link I posted above you will also find a death of an Alfred which is possibly her husband & 3 female marriages which were probably their daughters as they are also in the Burwood area.

Thanks Merlin.

Her husband was Alfred Edward Ravening (father Elijah) and I knew of two children Norah Eileen and Kathleen Edith so the other two (Francis Mary and Jean Lucy) are finds.
