Seeking missing details about Ernest Reginald Brimson and Elizabeth Fanny Pow who married 24 Dec 1910 in Indooroopelly, Brisbane, Queensland.

Did Ernest Brimson work as a french polisher (his trade in Bath before emigrating to Brisbane) until his death on the 1 Aug 1952?

All Electoral Rolls show that he was a French Polisher from at least 1916 - 1952

Elizabeth F Brimson was still alive in 1952 when Ernest died - so date of death after that. Could she have remarried?

Electoral rolls show him as a french polisher up to at least 1949, along with Charles Frederich Brimson also a french polisher in Indooroopilly. The PO directory for 1924 has Brimson Bros, French Polishers, (off) 164 Elizabeth st Brisbane.
