OK these are the ones with Mary Therese as mother. But, you say Hilda Elsie.. Digger - Pioneer Index. Victoria 1836-1888 ZILLES Jeanetta BORN Father: Conrad Mother: Mary Ther FINEGAN Birth Place: BULL Year: 1863 Reg Number: 1808 ZILLES Constance Ellen DIED Father: Conrad Mother: Mary FINNIGAN Age: 2 Birth Place: ROCK Year: 1865 Reg Number: 7532 Is this the same person as Jeanetta? ZILLAS Mary Josephine BORN Father: Conrad Mother: Mary FINNEGAN Birth Place: LINTON Year: 1866 Reg Number: 3041 ZILLES Gasteve George BORN Father: Conrad Mother: Mary Theresa FINNEGAN Birth Place: SEBA Year: 1870 Reg Number: 26245R WHY IS IT REVISED??? AH - the other version is TILLES. Let's have a look at that spelling. No, nothing on pioneer index cd. Linton and Sebastapol are quite close to each other - in fact they are now almost outer suburbs of Ballarat. Well, heading that way! Not sure about Rock and Bull.. Bulla, Bulleen, or?? I'd think BULLA back then - a good way from Ballarat, but on the way there for sure. And Rock I have not come across that I can remember.. Ah Rockbank. On the road to Ballarat, a bit out of Melbourne. Near enough for it to be the same place as Bulla, I think, if you are talking registration districts. And the marriage of the parents. ZILLES Conrad married FINEGAN Mother: Mary Theresa Year: 1861 Reg Number: 2661 Sadly no birthplace for either of the parents given - possibly it was not on the marriage cert itself as it is a field that is indexed USUALLY. There is nothing I can find to help you other than this. Is it possible they are interstate, or the names of the parents are mixed up? I can't find anyone o=with a mother Hilda or Elsie SIEMERING dying for instance, let alone the two names together! - not on the death index which is after 1921.

I understand that gaining free index for BDM does not occur in Vic. I am wondering if sks could advise me as to what I need to do from NSW to trace the ZILLES family from Ballarat Vic. I am looking for the marriage and children of Conrad and Hilda Elsie (SIEMERING) ZILLES...Conrad Zilles may have been a musician.
