His parents were Harry and Madge Walker and he had a daughter Linda. Trevor was probably born in the late 1920's in Sydney before his mother re-married and he moved to Victoria. Trevor's step father's name was George Hagg. It is thought Trevor passed away in the 1970's or 1980's in Victoria. Any help would be greatly assisted. Thank you.

Name: Honora O'Brien Death Date: 16 Jan 1898 Death Place: Queensland Father's Name: James O'Kane Mother's Name: Mary Lalor Registration Year: 1898 Registration Place: Queensland Registration Number: 004470 Page Number: 19499 haven't found anything about her, but I did look further into the Trees on Ancestry to find your Hanorah's sister married Frederick McCUBBIN, famous artist, and another sister married the painter Adam Laidlaw, parents of the founder of 'Yakka' clothing. Its very possible family papers have been left to some archives somewhere - and amongst those papers could very well be funeral cards for family members or letters which might mention Hanorah. If you know what happened to the McCUBBIN family papers, it would be well worth while speaking to the curator in charge of them to see what they know or have- maybe start with the National Gallery of Oz Cheers Jocelyn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Were there any other children? I also see the mother's death record seems to give accurate parent info, so someone was around who knew the family quite well..does her death cert say who the informant was? There are some possibles for your MM in 1903 - one is with a Jane M and Mary is a laundress at 12 Queen St, st Kilda Another is a 'grazier' in Inverleigh, and 2 were in Port Melbourne - 1 @ Rouse St the other at 134 Albert St ( on her own) and one MM at Sth Fitzroy with a Mary Ellen and Patrick M at 76 Webb St It looks like Margaret's husband moved to Sth Australia and died there 1915 - is this correct? Also, have you checked the Brighton cemetery? I had a look at the main ones, but nothing is showing - for Brighton you need to send them a message for a look up Definitely difficult to sort out!
