*COMPLETED* South Australian Birth - Frank GILLESPIE : Look up request
« on: Wednesday 02 March 11 02:49 GMT (UK) »
Frank GILLESPIE born in South Aust 1895. I need to confirm his exact birthplace. Was it Petersburgh (now Peterborough); Yongala or Warnertown? Would you also be able to supply his exact birthdate/month?
Frank's parents were Thomas Henry GILLESPIE and Amelia GILLESPIE.

Thank you in anticipation. Earlybird.

Families are like fudge, mostly sweet with a few nuts.

Thanks for that Dee. I really appreciate your prompt reply :)

No need for other siblings details at this stage as we have most of that info. I just wanted to be sure Frank was born at Petersburg (thanks for correct spelling!) and not somewhere else. The Australian War Memorial has him listed as being born at Port Lincoln. I'll need to notify them of the correction.

Thank you once again for taking the time to check records on my behalf.

Regards, Earlybird.
