Children and 2nd marriage of John Binks of Broughton?
« on: Monday 13 July 15 17:34 BST (UK) »
I've had good success researching John Binks, mainly in "Trove"

I have b1866, married Susanna Wray 1913-06-25, Susanna died 1917-11-04.

I then rather jump to an obituary (He died 12 sep 1929)

http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article155369569

Which has:

Quote
He married late in life, and lost his first wife shortly after the birth of the second son. Later he married again, and he is survived by his widow and the two boys.

I cannot find the birth of either son, or the second marriage.

Can anyone help?

Some persistent narrowing of search terms has narrowed this result:

1106/1924     BINKS    JOHN    GILES    AMELIA E    ROCKDALE

from https://familyhistory.bdm.nsw.gov.au

to be somewhere between 28/02/1924 and 1/03/1924

Still can't find it in the papers of Trove yet.

Her Will 5, days later:

(your story allowed me to restrict on date very tightly)

I'm now looking for an obituary - nothing so far.

Why would you expect that everything is on "TROVE" It is just a Newspaper archive? Obituary or notice of death by the undertaker? Obits are a paid classified service, unless person is of note and these are found in General news. Some newspapers do have an Obits section however.

The NSW bdm has their death recording and references and can be date searched by elimination.
Births after this day less one hundred years are not allowed.
Marriages prior to this day less 50 years are all on NSW BDM.

Neil I agree with your comments.  I note that John BINKS obituary was in The Methodist so not one of the daily newspapers however there was a small obituary in the Sydney Morning Herald which names his brothers
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16583909
and another in the The Shoalhaven News and South Coast Districts Advertiser
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article111936114

John BINKS' headstone
http://austcemindex.com/inscription.php?id=7673015

Country newspapers published obituaries which often give little information and in this case not even her given name!! 
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article104518588
Mrs John BINKS obituary in the The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser 17 Nov 1917

Susannah's headstone - note her date of death is inscribed as 28 Oct 1917 and if you use this exact date to search on NSW BDM it gives a result for her death. Obituary doesn't actually give dates just days of the week.  You need to amend your records for her death.

In 1929 John was survived by his widow and two boys.  I have found this birth and death on the net - BINKS Alfred John DeVere born 1916 Berry, NSW and died 27 Aug 1998.

Death that is obviously the other son from John's first marriage born in Oct 1917 when Susannah died.

Some chatters have resources for births to 1918 in NSW.  I suggest you post a new topic requesting a lookup for births to John and Susannah.
