Hi Sylvia,

Another possibility - but doesn't give age:-

Sydney Morning Herald - Saturday 8 January 1910

Sailing From Liverpool - Miss Florence Harding.

Thanks,

Darin.

Hi again Sylvia,

Queensland Figaro and Punch - Tuesday 2 July 1912

Possible marriage - gives husbands origin (Leicester), but not Florence's:-

Thanks,

Darin.

Hi again Sylvia,

On the off-chance that the Harding - Wheatcroft marriage is the correct one - it looks like her death was 1943 as per this in memorium from 1947:-

Courier-Mail (Brisbane, Queensland) - Tuesday 21 October 1947

Addenda - also found the death notice 1943.

Thanks,

Darin.

gosh Darin you have been busy. Nothing to say age or where born but if Florence died 1943 she would be 60. Perhaps if I could find approx birth of her husband it might give a clue. thanks for info. will have to investigate further and put out SOS. will try anyway to further research. Thanks again, appreciate help. Might crack this wall. Syljun

Hi Sylvia,

birth of husband:-

Births Mar 1882
Wheatcroft  Alliene Louis     Stow, S.  4a 680


Stow is in Suffolk, not Leicestershire, so he must have moved there after birth.

Thanks,

Darin.

Hi again Sylvia,

Somebody has Alliene Louis Wheatcroft and Florence Harding in their tree, but they have Florence's parents as Richard Ross Harding and Isabella Piercy Canopus Hardie, and state that she was born in Queensland in 1880, so looks like a dead end.

That's why it didn't state an English town of origin in her marriage record.

Sorry,

Darin.

Oh dear, Here was me thinking I was about to find her. Perhaps the 1904 Sailing of Florence from Liverpool will come up trumps if I can further research. You have worked hard and thank you for your time. Regards, syljun

Hi Sylvia,

One more crack,

What about this marriage:-

Marriages Dec 1907
GLEAVE  Edward Henry    Ulverston  8e 1529   
HARDIN  Florence     Ulverston  8e 1529

Now this marriage is in Cumbria, but in the 1911 census, the Gleave's are living in Yeovil, Somerset and Florence is given as born in Somerset - age 30 - not too far away.
Her husband was born in Lancashire.

Household GLEAVE, Edward Henry 1884 27 M Yeovil Somersetshire
Household GLEAVE, Florence 1881 30 F Yeovil Somersetshire
Household GLEAVE, Henry Hardin 1910 1 M Yeovil Somersetshire


Thanks,

Darin.
