Hi List, I am trying to help a friend with Pehr Victor PETERSON who was born 8 June 1866 in Svalehult (Madesjo) His mother's name was Emma Matilda Israelsson and father Peter Gustavsson, he was a sailor and lived in Melbourne, died 17 Mar/May 1921 and left a wife living at 121 Duuks, Albert Park (the spelling may be wrong ). I have been unable to find a marriage or death record on the Vic cd's, nor any children born and hoping SKS with the cd's could also have a look as I may be missing something, even though I believe I have tried all avenues of spellings. thanks in advance regards Kerry

Hi Kerry, It's probably Danks St. In 1929 Mrs A Fitzpatrick was living at No. 121. There was a Mrs A Peterson living at 197 Richardson St Albert Park in 1929.

Hi again Kerry, No luck with a death or inquest. Try checking for a probate record in case he died at sea or in another state or country. best wishes, Jenny -----Original Message----- From: Kerry Hall <kerhall@bigpond.net.au> To: AUS-MELBOURNE-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Sat, 4 Mar 2006 18:01:30 +1000 Subject: [AUS-MELB] Pehr Victor PETERSON Hi List, I am trying to help a friend with Pehr Victor PETERSON who was born 8 June 1866 in Svalehult (Madesjo) His mother's name was Emma Matilda Israelsson and father Peter Gustavsson, he was a sailor and lived in Melbourne, died 17 Mar/May 1921 and left a wife living at 121 Duuks, Albert Park (the spelling may be wrong ).
