Hi Rosie I think I might just have to get the certificate as I can't find any death or remarriage here in Aus for her can't even find anything for hubby so I'm stumped

[rosie99]

Did the whole family go to Australia

[natae]

I'm not sure I know Keith was only 17 when he died  and his brother Derek married here Derek would have been 19 when his brother died in 1958 she reckons they all come to Aus but I can't find a thing only the death for Keith & marriage for  Derek

Hi Rosie initials don't match only DR (Derek Roy)Carter and age would be right this family driving me nuts I think because Derek married 3 times things have got muddled up no body even knows if this fella is still alive his daughters where hopeing I could find him here in Aus I'm having enough trouble just trying to find his parents I think Ernest Roy Carter would have been app 42 when he arrived in Aus thanks for all the help
