NSW BDM online index

NEILL, the remains of the late Mrs Julia Gertrude NEILL will leave Central Station, Sydney on Sunday ….. for interment in the Church of England Cemetery, Hay.

See also Riverine Grazier 20 March 1936.  An Obit…  It gives confirmation about her maiden name, her occupation, her child’s name and age…  I have NOT typed up the child’s name, in order to respect the privacy of that person, born in NSW in the 1920s.

edited to amend incorrect information ... struck through Bathurst, replaced it with Junee.

An official transcription of the 1925 NSW marriage will likely show if Julia's parents were known to be deceased at that time.
