Hello I'm looking for any details (residences, employment, etc) about the above couple, my lost great-grandparents (by adoption), who lived in Brisbane in the 1920s or 1930s where they were married. They resumed residence in Brisbane later in the 1960s-1970s after a time on the north coast of NSW by which time the surname was changed to Sisorvich. They both died in Brisbane. Cheers Greg
Hello Greg, When Nicholas applied for Citizenship in WA in 1930, he said he had been in Australia 5 years, so therefore he was not in Australia prior to 1925. He enlisted for WW II at Brisbane in 1942 (but that does not mean he lived in Qld) and was discharged in 1943, but no where can I find he or his wife on a Queensland Electoral Roll up to 1959. Cheers Janet
There are two documents at the National Archives on him: http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetrieve/Interface/DetailsReports/Item Detail.aspx?Barcode=4845156 (WW1 service) http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/SearchNRetrieve/Interface/DetailsReports/Item Detail.aspx?Barcode=1643181 which seems to be some sort of investigative report. Unfortunately you have to pay to see ... There are a couple of newspaper items: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article32394679 (naturalisation) http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article76976644 (Madeline organises a children's concert) Kerry -----Original Message----- From: aus-qld-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-qld-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Janet Sent: Wednesday, 1 January 2014 4:47 PM To: aus-qld@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUS-QLD] Madeline Stott and Nicholas tzitzeovitch Hello Greg, When Nicholas applied for Citizenship in WA in 1930, he said he had been in Australia 5 years, so therefore he was not in Australia prior to 1925.
