William W? TURNBULL
« on: Wednesday 12 July 17 12:27 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find the couple, William W TURNBULL and his wife Dorothy M GAMBRILL - these details were provided by the NSW BMD site in which it was a marriage in 1934, Hurstville.

I've spent some time on trove looking for Wiliam, but nothing stood out. Also looked through Findmypast but found nothing either. If someone has access to Ancestry electoral rolls and could take a look that would be great.

I research all Australian GAMBRILLS and connections. I'm not sure how this Dorothy lady connects other than she maybe Doris Eileen Gambrill b.1912.  I have her married in 1951 to a CARPENTER so there could of been a marriage before this time.


Thanks for any assistance.

Thanks Jamjar... i've looked into it a bit from what you have provided.

TURNBULL   William Death notice 22-11-1977 Death late of Penshurst Sydney Morning Herald 23-11-1977

death notice says he was known as Bill Evans... husband of the late Dolly, brother of Ivor, Arthur and Tom.

And at NSW BMD, 27718/1977 parents James and Kathleen Mary

Woronora Cemetery: William Willoughby Turnbull 22/11/1977 Ashes Scattered


Dorothy May Turnbull 19/02/1965 Ashes Ee - Rose Garden 7 - 0027

TURNBULL   Dorothy May Death notice 19-2-1965 Death 69 late of Penshurst Sydney Morning Herald 20-2-1965

13695/1965 Dorothy May TURNBULL parents George Frederick and Mary HURSTVILLE

Jamjar

Death notice says Dorothy May TURNBULL of Penshurst St, Penshurst. (nee Evans), loved wife of William. aged 69.

There are no Gambrills in Australia during that time (early 1900's) with the name George Frederick, or the other way around. having said that, I'll continue to look to alternates. I do have a 2 x George <different middle name> Gambrill & Mary that had children around that time....


The name Evans has appeared for the both of them...

Did you notice the the BDM listing for the marriage also included the word Kite?

2532/1930 Dorothy M KITE  to Edwin G W ARGAET  BUNGENDORE

16874/1934 William W TURNBULL to Dorothy M KITE GAMBRIEL HURSTVILLE

An online tree has Dorothy Margaret Kite marrying Edwin, with her born in Young in 1911. BDM has her parents as Daniel W and Catherine J. It says they had 8 children.

Very odd.

She was Dorothy Margaret and they were both still alive in 1980 and living in Harden.

There are 3 entires for the William Turnbull / Dorothy Gambrill Kite marriage in 1934. All have the same reg. number. I dont know what is going on here but I think i'll phone the archives  today and see what they say.

I've phoned NSW BMD, and they said it appears that there was an amendment. They cannot view the actual record, but that is what they reckon has happened.

If she was born Kite then that ends the research for these 2.
