DEVINE headstones at Colac Cemetery?
Hi Team,
Looking for information on Herbert Michael Devine born 1883 died 1955 looking for his parents and siblings and marriage .
I suggest that the Victorian BDM website be used for research in preference to the subscription based websites whose indexes have many inaccuracies and mistranscriptions of place names.
Mary Ann Devine 1878 County La Victoria Born Colac Died as Mary Ann Josephine BOXSELL 1961 Perth WA.
Ellen Devine 1884 Camperdown Victoria died 1885 - there is no birth registered for Ellen in 1884 at Camperdown and the 1885 death is for an 11 month old daughter of James and Ellen who died at Camperdown.
Margaret Monica Devine 1882 Ondit Victoria she married 1908 George T Kingston she died Perth 1964
John Edward Devine 1881 Colac Victoria and a Patrick James Devine 1881 Colac looks like they are twins. Patrick Francis[no James] DEVINE son of James and Ellen died Heidelberg 1948 Reg#365
Thomas Devine 1879 Colac Victoria Died 1940 Colac Reg#15527
Philip Devine 1885 Campbells Creek - should be Camperdown. Died aged 23 days at Colac 1885 Reg#4677
These people all have the parents as James Devine and Ellen Moor/Moore
Rosie
Marriage
DEVINE Herbert Michael born Victoria
CAMPBELL Frances Mary born Victoria
1909 Reg#5907
There is no Victorian birth registration for a Frances with parents John and Teresa/Theresa on the Victorian indexes. You would need to purchase the marriage certificate to find her parents. However trawling the indexes for
CAMPBELL births in the 1870's, there are a number to John
CAMPBELL and Elizabeth
SMITH and includes a Frances born in 1878 at Winchelsea Reg#26464. There is a headstone in the Colac cemetery for a John
CAMPBELL who died in 1904 and his wife Elizabeth nee SMITH who died in 1906. You can search for Frances's siblings on Vic bdm.

I suggest you also trawl through the PROV Wills and Admon Indexes...there are a number of
DEVINE files but those post 1928 you have to purchase or have someone view the files at Ballarat or North Melbourne rooms.
