Hi Paul in Sydney I looked at that record in Victoria BMD Register and it shows the following Buy Image Buy Cert Surname Given Name(s) Event Sps Snm / Father Sps Gvn / Mother Year Reg. No TODD James D Unknown UNKNOWN 1879 8712 Maybe the kind reader put in Victoria into whatever index search they used Regards Daryl from Oz (Warrawee NSW) -----Original Message----- From: australia-cemeteries-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:australia-cemeteries-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Ironside Sent: Monday, 8 November 2010 4:39 PM To: australia-cemeteries@rootsweb.com Subject: [AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES] Death reg'n entry (My apology if this message turns up twice but the original was not received by myself) I have been given the following entry by a kind reader, but it raises the question, why would both the place of death and the Registration Place both be shown as "Victoria" and not as a town or city? Name: James TODD Death Place: Victoria Age: 53 Registration Year: 1879 Registration Place: Victoria Registration Number: 8712 Of course not having parents names shown will mean I cannot claim him but the question remains, why only "Victoria". Your thoughts please kind readers.
