Not as far as I'm aware. I think you'll find the nearest equivalent will be one or another of the various suburban groups - but I don't have any details of those. the older of the tworobbos

Robert I was not sure of the dates but the State Library has a full set of all vic newspapers. I spent a day going through them last week. Only found a couple of what I was looking for though. I am not sure where you are situated. You could try google for the historical societies, There are many of them. If you are looking for deaths have you tried the cemeteries for headstones & details, they are a great source. Carmel ----- Original Message ----- From: "KEMSLEY, Robert N.

I am guessing his first wife was Philippi Hosking Carmen. he married her in 1856. she died in 1878 and was born in Cornwall. her parents were Richard Carman and Phillipa Hosking. they had 10 children born in Epsom and Whitehills between 1857 and 1877.

Am hoping for more info re the above man. He was a widower with 10 children when he married my ggrandmother (also widowed) in 1883 in St.Andrew's Manse Bendigo. Other info on the cert states that he was widowed in 1878 and that his birthplace was Cornwall England. He was an engineer aged 52 and parents were James Mitchell and Mary Hallet. wish to know who his first wife was and if married in vic and who were the ten children. I haven't been able to find his death as yet, but curiously, when his new wife died in 1902 she was buried in the same grave as her first husband. Hoping for some enlightenment. regards Evelyn
