I have been researching a WILLIAMSON family that has a couple of Central Coast roots I am pretty sure one of their sons was Arthur Smith WILLIAMSON who d 6 Oct 1969, Casino I checked the NSW Probate indexes and this fellow left a will and I was surprise to find his residential address was at Evans Head Is Casino the name of the registration area ? Thanks Bye MargM Member of Central Coast Family History Society Gosford NSW

When I exchanged some family info with relatives I was surprised to note they had my Grandfather's death as Gosford whereas I remember only too clearly that he died in my family home at Lane Cove, Sydney. They had taken his death place from the Probate index and as his daughter was the Exec. and she lived at Gosford this was probably registered there.

Hi Lyn Its a persons place of residence that is in the NSW Probate index , not place of death This is what caused my query as in the Probate index it has Evans Head as place of residence , in the BDMs his death registered at Casino . I wondered why it wasnt Lismore but apparently Casino is the rego area name If someone died at Lane Cove their death would come under North Sydney or maybe Chatswood . Gosford is a completely different area Bye MargM Beautiful Central Coast of NSW
