Karlie Loma BROWN
« on: Friday 07 June 24 04:03 BST (UK) »
I'm helping a friend with a brick wall.
She can't find anything about her Aunty ( Her Mum's sister). She was never talked about and was estranged from the family. There are no living relatives to ask.
The following is all the information I can find.

Karlie Loma BROWN b 1936 Castlemaine Victoria.
Parents- Ronald Stewart BROWN   b1897 Northamptonshire - d 1966 Preston Victoria
             Loma Vera Emma WOODALL b 1900 Tarnagulla Victoria- 1991 Mooroopna Victoria

She had a couple of brushes with the law.

https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/116847822?searchTerm=%22%20Karlie%20Brown%22

That's all I can find. No Marriage, no Death.
My friend has checked that she didn't legally change her name.

Any help would be gratefully accepted.
TIA

Tricky. Not included in her mother's will dated 1983, had she died, or just estranged  :-\ .

Father died intestate, but administration says Karlie's whereabouts unknown in 1966.

If she stayed in Victoria she would have to have married before 1964 or died before 1994 for there to be any public record of either event.  If she was admitted to an institution then those records would be closed for at least 100 years.

Thanks Maddy and Dundee. Yes she's a real mystery. There was talk about her possibly entering a Convent, don't know where. If she did she would probably have taken another name. No idea where to look next.
Thank you both.
