DENNY from USA to Australia
« on: Saturday 13 November 10 00:43 GMT (UK) »
Henry Oliver DENNY also spelt DENNEY, DENEY or DEWEY was born in the USA around 1876. He married my G Grandmoters sister in Victoria, Austalia in 1906 and died in Victoria in 1942 aged 66 years.

I am trying to find which part of the USA he came from and when he emigrated to Australia.

Have no idea what records are available in USA

Many thanks

Hi Dale

When he married - was is as  Henry DENEY?

When he died - how was he registered?

Do either of the documents state a name for either of his parents?

Cheers

Hi Ambley,

Sorry he died in 1918 aged 42 as Harry DENNY parents unknown

He married in 1906 as Henry Oliver DENEY - I dont have the certificate so have no other information.
