Hello List I noticed on the NLA site that there is a CD that is called Victorian Deaths from 1921 - 1985. As I am trying to find Reginald Batres BUT he changed his name to Reginald SMITH. (Smith of all surnames!) I know Reginald born 1904, NSW. (Parents Elijah & Minnie BATES) Married in 1927, NSW Daughter born 1928. (<- Great Aunt) she said her Dad well took off with another woman and changed his name. She knows nothing more. All that he went to Victoria. I just thought if I could find his death. Its hard as well he is a 'missing person'. Just an idea I just had and thought I would post a message to see if anyone had those CD's at home to have a quick look for me. Be so much appreciated. Thank You Rachel ...
