hi. heather and I are still trying to find violet Elston birth details, I am wondering if you know where an unwed woman would have gone to have her baby in 1910 somewhere between colac and adelaide

Hi

I would suggest Melbourne would be much closer to Colac?  Lots of unwed mothers went to Carlton Women's Hospital.

Hi Gina,
I'm searching for a friend who is the son of Violet. He was born in 1929 when Violet was 19 years old and has no record of his father (blank on the birth certificate). I assume this was before she married George....? He has never had any contact with any of his family. He has not found a birth record for his mother (which he was lead to believe was in SA), but a google search lead me here.
Can you tell me which children Violet had?

Hi Kelly,
I would love some more information about your friend who thinks that Violet is his mother. Violet was my nana too (Gina’s cousin) and her life has always been a bit of a mystery to us. I was only small when she died but she wouldn’t talk about her life or family to my mum. Violet had four children after she was married to George, one of them was my mum.
Anything you can share would help.
