A hand written note from his sister in law says 'Matthew goldfields Tarrengower about 1859'. Another letter written in response to an advert in the Warcry states he went there in '56 and wasn't heard from again. To try to locate his death, what towns would I be looking for? I'm not sure where the Tarrengower goldfields were. He had previously ran a butcher shop in Elizabeth Street Melbourne with his brother John Franklin. Any further info on that also appreciated. Thanks for taking the time. Sue

Many thanks to all listers who have responded on and off list to my query regarding the placename N and Chill. Consensus is that it referred to Newton and Chilwell, a suburb of Geelong. Does any one have any suggestions regarding Bendigo area jail records for the late 1800s? Thanks again for all assistance. Norma

There is no other listed but she would > only have been 16 if born 1905. > > Regards > Sue > > > Checking the Vic electoral rolls shows: in 1931, a Violet Gladys *FISHER*, home duties, was living at 273 High St. *Bendigo* along with a James George *FISHER*, labourer. This info tends to reinforce the need to acquire the marriage cert. from 1921 and hints strongly at the early marriage of Violet Gladys BUTLER to James FISHER as posted by Sue. Checking the death indexes - there's a chance these are the children of the Violet of interest: Surname: FISHER Given Names: Donald Roy Father: Fisher Jas Geo Mother: Violet BUTLER Death Place: BENDIGO Age: 23 Year: 1946 Reg Number: 22496 Event: D Surname: FISHER Given Names: Stanley James Father: Fisher James G Mother: Violet Mar BUTLER Death Place: SYDE Age: 45 Year: 1968 Reg Number: 3996 Obviously if Violet had children from say the age of 18 to 35, remembering she was born in 1905, there is a very good chance that some of Violet's children are still alive - Violet doesn't seem to show up in the death indexes up to 1985 - which really isn't surprising - people live well past 80 years of age ... Really - I think it would be best to get hold of the marriage cert. and then try to locate more info... good luck Robert ps. this may be a national archives reference to one of Violet's children being enlisted in the armed forces: > FISHER STANLEY JAMES : Service Number - VX106698 : Date of birth - 27 Apr 1922 : Place of birth - BENDIGO VIC : Place of enlistment - ROKEBY VIC : Next of Kin - FISHER JAMES > Barcode MvS wrote: > Blank > Hi List, > > Would someone kindly be able to look up a marriage for this lady and perhaps > children. > > Information below is all I have. > > > Given Names: Violet Gladys > Event: B > Sex: > Spouse Surname/Father: Silvester Walt > Spouse Gvn Names/Mother: Mary Ann MORGAN > Age: > Age Code: > Birth Place: BENDIGO > Death Place: > Year: 1905 > Reg.

Hello Marcelle, A Violet Gladys BUTLER married James FISHER 1921 Reg. 12967. You would need the certificate to check whether this is the right one as parents and place of birth don't appear on the index. There is no other listed but she would only have been 16 if born 1905. Regards Sue
