 :)  I may have added to the confusion....  I blame the puter, it should have known how to spell Mabel.   

;D  ;D  ;D  (Well it should !)

So please read "Mabel" in lieu of "Martha"  and I would suggest that would be the marriage that Cando is referring to, as it is the same reference number.   

Cheers,  JM

Re
Message for majm - Qld marriages online certificates are up to 1941.

 cant find marriage of John bell Houston & Martha Helen Flanagan 1918,


 :) NSW BDM online index has the marriage of Martha Helen FLANAGAN.   
(JM ADDS, a JM typo, please read "Mabel" in lieu of "Martha". )

It is from 1918.  It is reference # 9790.  The groom is William B HOUSTON.

 :) Cando had provided you with the look up.


9790/1918
HOUSTON William B
FLANAGAN Mabel H
District Wollongong


Re Qld BDM online index.   As with all the Aussie BDM indexes, they only display up to but not into the various restricted access periods.   However, the registration process of course continues.  The restricted access period limits members of the general public from gaining access to non historic registrations. 

 :) Dundee provided you with excellent advice.

Do you have the marriage registration for JH and Marion, and if so, what information does JH give about himself and his parents?
Cheers,  JM
The marriage was probably less than 75 years ago but if you can prove that both are deceased you may be able to apply for a search.

Thank you  for the offer but i went to state records today, W B Houston's probate was no help , but i did find info - it answered the Q - JH Houston was an alias, i wont post anymore info as there could be living relatives.

Thank you again
