Hi all, thanks so much for your help recently. Unfortunately I need a little more help on a different name. The person is William Edward Booker who was born we thinkk on 3 June 1917. Hearsay. Can you verify this for me and perhaps find out if there are any more relatives to this man. I am trying to get my family tree sorted out and this man is my hal-brother's father and to date we havent' found anything about him. Hoping someone with more knowledge than I, can help me. -- Regards *Liz Clempson*

Peter is very resourceful, that is for sure, a regular Sherlock Holmes. He has found so much for me also.

His no go marriage to Lola states he was born in Melbourne and his fathers' name was David and his mothers' name May. Do you have other children to this couple? I cannot find a birth for him in Vic. Cheers Lyn

Hi Liz, No record of a birth found, but there are some newspaper references to a William Edward Booker age 18 in 1936, may be worth checking them on TROVE.

Appears William Edward Booker's parents were having children in Launceston prior to his birth in 1916 - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C95P-WWM2-Y?i=91&cc=2400177 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C95P-WWWR-1?i=35&cc=2400177 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C95P-49RJ?i=174&cc=2400177 David and May Booker married in Launceston in 1905 - Name: Davis Edward Hatton Booker Spouse Name: May Strurzaker Marriage Place: Tasmania Registration Place: Tasmania Registration Year: 1905 Page Number: 0650 David and May Booker buried Carr Villa - Given Names DAVID EDWARD Surname BOOKER Age 73 Death Date Service Date 28/9/1951 Area Mon Location B3 Number 66.00 Site Given Names MAY Surname BOOKER Age 81 Death Date Service Date 11/5/1962 Area Mon Location B3 Number 66.00 Site Can't fathom the Hobart Registry marriage in 1937 for William and Lola and then the marriage in Victoria in 1938 for William and Beryl - if they are the same man? unless Lola died in between?

Hi again Liz, Have you seen the Ancestry tree of Suzanne Walsh? That has William Edward Booker's father as William Harold Daniel Booker, a brother of David Edward Hatton Booker In the 1919 electoral roll William Harold Daniel is recorded at 17 Lyttleton Street, Launceston, as are David Edward and May (nee Sturzaker).  Several of David's children are recorded as being born at 17 Lyttleton Street. William Edward Booker's military file (digitized) on the National Archives site shows his date of birth as 3 June 1916 at Launceston. His marriage to Beryl Ernestine is in the Victorian Marriage Index. Perhaps the date and place of birth were a fiction, or perhaps he changed his name?  Nothing even close in the Tasmanian births.

Hi Liz, Here's an odd one to throw into it all. Using the date of his birth I have found the following on the TFI. BOWKER, Maxwell John, born 03 Jun 1917, 6 Victoria Street, Launceston, father un-named, mother Nellie BOWKER, 1917, Reg No 773. Was this surname actually BOOKER? Noah Booker and Alice Stubbs also had a daughter Nellie Harriet/t Booker who died young. Did they have another daughter Nellie whose birth wasn't registered. Did this Nellie have an illegitimate child who was brought up by one of her brothers and had his Christian names changed????? That hard part is how to prove things.

I didn't look at that marriage at the Hobart Registry office between William Edward Booker and Lola Jacobson very hard and there's one glaring thing about it ...no signatures for bride and groom and none for witness' nor on consent page either?? So the marriage was never ratified official. William must have gone on to greener pastures with his Victorian bride Beryl.

Actually it was further down the page Peter, I don't remember the number, I was too busy looking through the whole lot as I had never seen this site before. I also think he may have been a tad young to marry but who knows.

Number 1110 and of course 21yrs is not too young to marry, what was I thinking. It states he was born in Victoria.

I also think he may have been a tad young to marry but who knows.

BOOKER I didn't look at that marriage at the Hobart Registry office between William Edward Booker and Lola Jacobson very hard and there's one glaring thing about it ...no signatures for bride and groom and none for witness' nor on consent page either?? So the marriage was never ratified official. William must have gone on to greener pastures with his Victorian bride Beryl.

Curiouser and curiouser, ready to marry Lola 1937 then heads off to Vic to marry Beryl !!!

A very curious affair. Lola is interesting as well as I have her marrying Raymond Howland with a daughter born 1939. Another tree on Ancestry has her married to someone else. As she is only a leaf on the family tree I am researching sl I haven't studied that line at all.
