John Fraser and Marion Freyman
« on: Monday 09 July 18 20:08 BST (UK) »
John Fraser was born in Perth in about 1902 and his wife Marion Freyman was born in Berlin in 1915. Their marriage did not take place in WA before 1942. They had a daughter *. I have not found the marriage on the Australian newspaper sites. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi there,

I've taken the name of the daughter out in case she's still living.
Is it possible John met and married Marion overseas? (Perhaps while serving in WWII?)

Don't see any sign of them here: http://www.wamarriage.info/

What yr was the daughter born (presumably Aus) & do you know if there were other siblings (older)?

Her yr of birth may help with tracing a marriage?

What info. was on her birth cert?

Have you looked at immigration lists?

"Marion Freyman was born in Berlin in 1915"...

What info. do you have on her, who were her parents?

I'm wondering if Marion's father was in the Army as it's not a German forename i.e. if Marion was a 1st or only child it's very likely Marion's mother was also Scottish or at least British?
