Many thanks for your great effort as usual Shirlee.. I have got Joseph's death certificate and names all children 5 alive 1 dead (Arthur) but no mention of Albert I had a thought that maybe a mistake had been made in the registrations with the both births being 1884 (bit unusual unless they are twins) Arthur being 5 March reg no 10276 and Albert 2 July reg 17679 then Arthur dying 13 Oct 1884 5 months old..It doesn't seem possible for 2 births in such a short time...What do you think..Arthur is buried at New Melb Cemetery Grave 450 Sec cc and C/E but doesn't tell me who else is there Anyone have any ideas would be gratefully accepted Fran ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shirlee Cantwell" <tcantwell@xtra.co.nz> To: <aus-melbourne@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2010 6:00 AM Subject: Re: [AUS-MELBOURNE] Look up please > Hi Fran > > Have you obtained the Death Reg for Joseph Bowles?
