Chatters
I know that this is a tall order but l won`t find out until l ask for ideas in how to find something out.
I came across this funeral announcement of a person beloning to my greater family tree but l am left wondering who some of the mentioned people are - as l have not come across them so far.
1st Announcement from TROVE 30 August 1911..
LORKING - The Friends of Mr and Mrs (Florence) H. Quinn, Mr and Mrs Hodson, Mr and Mrs (Edith) Burden, Mr and Mrs Bedford, Mr and Mrs (Daisy) Sadler are kindly invited to attend the Funeral of their late beloved MOTHER, Catherine Lorking; to leave her daughter`s residence, 33 Dalgety-road, Miller`s Point, THIS DAY, at 1.15, for the Rockwood Cemetary.
Catherines husband was Ernest Alfred LORKING (sometimes in the NSW BDM indexes as Alfred E.) but no mention of him in any of the annuncements
I have the Quinns, Burdens and Sadlers in the tree but not the Hodsons or Bedfords
2nd Announcement from the same...
LORKING - The Freinds of Mr and Mrs EDWARD GREEN and FAMILY are kindly invited..(same as above)... of their beloved SISTER and AUNT..(same as above)....
I know that the Mrs Green is Adelaide
I have, for the past hours, been trying to find out who they are from the 1st announcement by looking at the online NSW BDM indexes in diferent combinations with the remaining children of Catherine but to no avail. The remaining children attributed to Catherine and Ernest are the following....Elsie M and Ethal O (married a Johnston).
I know it is a tall order to find something out but l want to a least give it a go !!!
Tips/Advice would be greatly aprreciated in solving this one - I still feel like an ameture at this !!!
