Trying to trace William Johnson NSW Australia

[Jamjar]

Wife was put on a good behaviour bond http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article18187405

I can't see a death for her or a probate or divorce for her.   She is probably still living.

Not if she was born around the same time as Darrell, but she could have been much younger I suppose.

Thank you so much again Ros.

I've been busy just trying to put together the links and information that you (all) have given me. 

So many questions but I wonder why I have two 'middle' names for Darrells mother?  I wonder if Darrell's wife stayed at the address at Hampstead Road after Darrell died?  I wonder if she remarried after Darrell died and that is why there is no record of her death? You see I believe Darrell (Bill) is probably my grandfather.  (Another sad untold story but not quite as shocking I guess as that of Darrell's wife).  Sad also as my grandmother lived in Auburn when Darrell died.   I wonder if she knew he was there?  She would never speak of my mothers father so it must have been hurtful and also opened a huge can of worms. 

I am going to take Ancestory's DNA test so if the results find I am linked to the tree/s that you found on Ancestory, I will know quite probably. 

I really am so grateful for all the information you have found and provided. 

Thanks so much and for looking into photographing the probate packages for me too.

Darrell's wife aged 31 in that article.   1950 - 31 = born about 1919.

Thank you MaJm too for you extra information.

I am trying to put it all together now but as good and sad as the information is it is so very exciting to find all this.

Hi and a big thank you too to Cup of Life! 

I am not sure how I missed thanking you for information too and yes, it does look like Dorothy and Darrell were divorced!  More to investigate!

Wow!  I am overwhelmed by all the help I am receiving.  It means so much!  Thank you!
