Death Lookup - John BRADY Victoria
« on: Sunday 16 January 11 01:47 GMT (UK) »
I have hit a brickwall in finding a death certificate for John Brady.  Need to know if any one else can help me.  I have the following information.  John Brady born about 1812 Dublin - married Ellen Penrose in Warrambool about 1856.  They moved to Stanley in Victoria to live.  They had the following children:- John, Ann, William, James, Charles, George and Francis.  Ellen his wife died in 1876, his daughter was married in 1880.  I believe he was alive up until then according to family info.  His profession was a gold miner and he lived for awhile in Stanley.    One of his sons moved to NSW and a few others moved down to Emerald in Victoria.   I have not been able to actually pinpoint and find a death certificate for him, I don't know if any one is able to obtain more information that I can see on the BDM without me purchasing all the possible certs.  Can anyone offer some advice or assistance?    His mother and fathers names were John Brady and Ann Darcy both from Dublin.  Many thanks for your time and possible assistance.
Regards

I'm not much help really, but I think his daughter's marriage certificate should tell you if he is still alive or not - that could narrow down the time for searching!  Do you have that?

Not really about John BRADY;s death.   Thought the BRADY name and Stanley, Vic rang a bell :)

Thankyou Wiggy and Cando,
Yes he was still alive in 1880 when his daughter was married - then nothing.  When his wife died he was left with a young sons, so his daughter looked after the family. 
Apparently he was engaged to another lady, so thinking that her father was going to be okay - she got married and he had to write permission for her to get married.

Cando, many thanks for the link - it was me!  His son John Brady (jnr) is buried in Stanley.  I am chasing his elusive father John Brady (Snr).   I just don't know where about the devil died!  Maybe one day I strike it lucky!  A big thankyou to you both.

One of his sons moved to NSW

Do you know where in NSW? 

What was John's occupation?

Cheers

Thanks Alison and LoganH, very much appreciated your time in looking for me!  I dont think it is him LoganH - this John Brady arrived as a convict - no family members in Australia as far as we know!  In regards to Cando's question about his son, this son - Charles Brady went to NSW and died at Tumbarumba NSW.  The only family were his son's and daughter the daughter died at Yackendandah her married name was Grant.  The eldest son was buried at Stanley Victoria and others were buried at I think Emerald or Lysterfield or Macceslfield in Victoria.  One thing I am sure of is that he definitely died somewhere! :P
