Worrall Family Adelaide Australia
« on: Wednesday 06 November 13 13:29 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace records of William & Owen Wood Worrall born 1912 & 1914 in Adelaide mother Maria father Owen. I know Maria died in Australia in the early 50s and Owen returned to England.Have not been able to find any records of his 2 sons who stayed in Australia.Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Rosie
Thanks for your very prompt reply.This is the correct William & Owen. Williams full name was William John Howard. We have found a marriage in 1933 in Adelaide to Ray Elsie Eileen Beaumont after following the links on the bmd site. Is there any way we could trace any children born to them.
I don't think Owen ever married, we always suspected one of the brothers was a bit out of step.

Any further information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Margaret.

Hi Leanne.

Thanks for your 2 posts both very welcome. We followed links and he really was a lively chap!!!
Found confirmation of his birth, death, and burial.I couldn't find any records of a marriage only for his brother William.
 Thanks again for your help.

Margaret.
