Mordialloc..you need to know if that place is Kew or Kooyong or wherever I guess as it still might not be the last wife that we know of!. No sign of Peter at that address or anywhere. What I suggest you do is to go into your own State Library with the clues from 1963...a librarian will help usually, and work your way through My Vic CDs are playing up - won't count the names, so I hope someone else on the board can help sort that out. Has anyone tried facebook for some of the children? ( esp the 1961 birth) Cheers Jocelyn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

FALLON Edward Place: Murray Darling River Junction Year 1856 Reference: 722 Cause: Accident drowned Occupation: Mounted Constable The present Mildura Cemetery would not have existed in 1856. This area was a pastoral area in the era. In 1847 Hugh Jamieson on behalf of William Stawell took up an area of 150,000 acres known as Yerre Yerre. It was combined with the Irymple Run of 28,160 acres and in 1858 the runs were re-named Mildura. Mildura was gazetted as a town on 20 March 1858. Unfortunately the Victorian Govt Gazettes online commence at 1880 so I can't search for the cemetery reserve being gazetted. Mildura Cemetery records are not online. I suggest you contact Mildura Rural City Council. Their staff are extrememly helpful but extremely doubtful that a record would exist for a burial in 1856.
