Hello Barbara from W.A., There are no birth details for W.A. past 1905. I have checked the Karrakatta Cemetery records for you. Herbert Russell Thornber is buried with Bertha May Thornber Congregational BA 0309. This Bertha May was born about 1915, so is probably wife of Herbert. If you think there may be some connection let me know, I will be in the library tom, Monday and will check death notices for you if you want them. Please let me know before then, Chris in W.A.
Dear Chris, Firstly, many thanks for your fast response, and for taking the time for checking. Unfortunately, Bertha May is not my connection. In some cases, family tree's have carry on Christian names... with Bertha ... it was uncanny to have her name, plus her second name which was that of her mother...along with Herbert being her father. Never mind... Thank you again Chris.. back to the drawing board. Cheers, Barbara / Queensland. ----- Original Message ----- From: Christine Anderson <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 4:13 AM Subject: Re: [AUS-WA] Thornber search > Hello Barbara from W.A., > There are no birth details for W.A. past 1905. > I have checked the Karrakatta Cemetery records for you. > Herbert Russell Thornber is buried with Bertha May Thornber Congregational > BA 0309. > This Bertha May was born about 1915, so is probably wife of Herbert. > If you think there may be some connection let me know, I will be in the > library tom, Monday and will check death notices for you if you want them. > Please let me know before then, > Chris in W.A. > > > > ==== AUS-WA Mailing List ==== > > Q: Why do WA's cyber-genies hang out at the Perth DPS & use DPS-CHAT-L ? > A: Check out: ' http://www.perthdps.com/dps-chat.htm ' > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 >
