    1. Re: [AUS-MELBOURNE] Murphy, Knight, Jones - looking for descendants
    2. Sherrie Blackman
    3. Hi everyone, Always on the lookout for 'descendants' of the following two families... Mark Levi KNIGHT (b.1905 Moe, Vic) married Catherine Gladys MURPHY (b.1899 Vic)in 1927 Caulfield, Victoria. I cannot find their deaths in Victoria, NSW, Qld. Mark Levi Knight's parents were: Northcote/Norcot Knight & Cora Varney Catherine Gladys Murphy's parents were: John Andrew James Murphy & Clara Parker. It would appear Catherine (Kitty) Knight (nee Murphy) died after 1963, as she is listed on her Father's death certificate. & Patrick MURPHY & Bridget Augusta JONES m. 1905 Victoria. Children... 1. Patrick Clarence Murphy - b. 1906 - d.1973 "Blac", Vic 2. Phyllis Cecilia Murphy - b. 1910 3. Eileen Bridget Murphy - b.1916 - d.1996 never married 4. Veronica Mary Murphy - b.1919 5. Kevin Francis Murphy - b. 1923 - d. 1967 Burwood, Vic 6. Carmel Geraldine Murphy - b. 1928 - poss m. Daniel Fraser I purchased Bridget Murphy (nee Jones) death certificate and found 2 surprise kids on there. Patrick MURPHY married Bridget Augusta JONES 1905 Victoria (Bridget b.1885 - Par: Patrick Jones & Catherine Greelish m.1873 - umpteen kids at Woodend) 1. LILY - c.1903 - d.aft 1965 - married or spinster ? 2. Patrick Clarence - b.1906 Malvern - d.1973 - m. Sarah M BOYLE 1939 3. Phyllis Cecila - b.1910 Daylesford - not mentioned on mother's death cert. 4. Eileen Bridget - b.1916 'Brat' Vic - d.1996 - not married 5. Veronica Mary - b.1919 Ballarat - still alive in 1943 when her father died 6. Kevin Francis - b.1923 Kyneton, Vic - d.1967 - married ? 7. MOLLIE - c.1924 - d. aft 1965 8. Carmel Geraldine - c.1928 - poss. m. Daniel FRASER lost a child Carl Francis Fraser in 1956 Richmond, Vic (cannot find parents deaths in Vic) LILY & MOLLIE - surprise childen :) or possibly... Could Lily be 'Eliza Minnie' (b.1901 - d.1974 spinster) to Patrick's 1st wife (d.1902) and could 'Mollie' be Veronica Mary', as Veronica is not mentioned on the death certificate either ? Most of the family is buried at Fawkner (I've searched the on-line indexes). I've also checked the Vic Death after 1965 for Lily & Mollie (all variations) and can not find a match. Hoping someone may see a connection. Sherrie. -- http://www.silkweb.com.au/
