To Lorene, Julie & Allan, Thank you so very much for your replies, interest & advice. Lorene, those deaths are for the other Hill / Hook family & so far, I haven't been able to link them. You were able to confirm that with the informative info from the Ian Marr indexes, so I can now take those deaths from my 'possible' lists. Thank you. Julie - you advise is noted will see what comes with the indexes & the bank balance of the neighbour. <grin> BonnieB Good morning, We have a James Joseph Hill - who was born in Casterton in 1858, the son of James & Mary Jane Hook (death cert). He married Mary Jane Craig in Adelaide 1881. <snip>
