Henry Fenton, husband of Florence De Cis was my grandfather's brother. I haven't traced the De Cis line back as that is not my line. All I have is that Florence Ellen May Veronica De Cis was born in 1888 in Port Melbourne, d/o Thomas DeCis and Margaret Teresa Knox. She died 11 Oct 1853 and was buried with husband and 4yo son in Footscray Cemetery. I would be very interested in the Fenton dates that you have in your uncles birthday book.

Now my issue is, i have purchased Alice's birth and her marriage records to Edward Kealey, but it seems her death record through bmd Victoria isn't there. has anyone come across it or have a copy i may be able to gain?

I found a John Foote death in 1926 so I don't yet know if that was her second husband and whether she married again. I know my greatgrand parents were alive in 1954, living in Bairnsdale or surrounds but I don't have actual names for them then.
