Four WEST “Brick Walls”

[~MERLIN~]

Dee, I'll be back later with the 1903 Directory list for you 

[deeiluka]

Oh dear.....another thing to discard!     

Thanks Merlin.   

[~MERLIN~]

Forgot to ask... are there any other names from the 1903 Directory you want?

[deeiluka]

Not that I can think of immediately.....only any of the names mentioned in this thread, including an Arthur Frederick West, as named on Edwin Peter West's South Australian marriage certificate. He was given as deceased on that document in 1914.

[~MERLIN~]

I scanned the whole page of WEST's in the 1903 Wise's Directory.
A few might be of interest to you

Many thanks, Merlin.   

I don't know that any of them are connected with this thread, though there's a couple who have the possibility to be. But there are sure to be Wests on there that are connected with the wife of Edwin Peter West's son.

Dee, do you want the CHANDLER's from the 1903 Wise's Directory also?

Back to Mrs Frances WEST nee CHANDLER...sorry for jumping all over the place Dee.

Mrs Frances WEST was born c1853 according to her death registration and death notice.

Could this be her birth...  I'm probably snatching at straws

CHANDLER Fanny
19 Dec 1852
Father William CHANDLER  Mother Maria MACKLIN
Birth place not recorded   Ade 4/100

And did Fanny/Frances have this child when she was c23.  I cannot find anything about the father.

CHANDLER Esther
4 Jun 1874
Father Solomon MAURICE  Mother Fanny CHANDLER
At Burnside  Ade X 137/134
Cross Reference See also MAURICE Esther

MAURICE Esther

Deaths

The only other births to a Fanny/Frances CHANDLER are the WEST ones.

Fanny's mother's death
CHANDLER Maria  72 years  Status Married  Father William CHANDLER [Husband]

And father

I wondered why Lancelot D'arcy WEST died at Mitcham in Victoria but was buried at Centennial Park.  It would appear he was either living with or visiting his son.
