Auguste Wilhelmina MOLDE nee Lecher

[chrissiecruiser]

Hello slueths.
I am in country South Australia so cannot  pop into the library or other searchable places.
My GGrandmother, above, died 28 Feb 1901 in the Adelaide Hospital, as a result of burns received when using a cinders iron, 25 Feb 1901. I have viewed hospital admission forms but wondered if an inquest would have been required? So far unable to locate one.
Any ideas where to look?
Cheers,
Chris.

Thankyou MERLIN so much. I will investigate on my desktop tomorrow.
I knew it would be there somewhere.
Cheers,

Hello Garstonite,
I do have a tree on Ancestry...Berg, Molde, Lecher, Kruger Family tree.  It is not as extensive as another tree I own, due to not knowing German or the various districts and churches.  Recently a German Search Angel helped me to find some family.
 
The name Lecher seemed a problem, but apparently was changed several times in Germany/Prussia from Locher, Loecher, Locker (depending on the person writing it down). Names were quite fluid back then and I have found lots of people having a similar problem. Illiteracy played a big part.

Having gotten on the Ship, "Australia" as Lecher, the name from then on stayed the same.

This also happened on the other side where Molde became very different.

Thank you for your interest. What a fascinating hobby.
Cheers,
Chris
