I have recently published a new small ELDRIDGE family page at http://www2.hunterlink.net.au/~ddrge/genealogy/wae.html The two relevant Eldridge members were in Townsville QLD in the Australian Electoral rolls. This is an unusual family as both brothers changed their surname from ISAACS. They were Walter Arthur ELDRIDGE and his brother Leonard Thomas Frederick ELDRIDGE (death reg's QLD 1958). Walter married and his wife is shown as Grace Edith Rose ELDRIDGE in the rolls and Leonard married Jane Leighton HERRON. If any reader has access to Townsville QLD records that may mention any ELDRIDGE person I will appreciate the details. Cheers, -- Robert G. Eldridge Toronto NSW Australia http://www.eldridgegenealogy.org Now researching ELDRIDGE families world wide 1000s at my Web site *Wanted* Any Eldridge related information

Hi all, In the 1980s my wife's late uncle John Howman published two books on the known Howman family from Great Ryburgh, Norfolk and surrounding areas, including three brothers who went to Victoria in the 1850s. A distant branch of the family also came to Tasmania, the connection to that family was not known when the books were published. I am considering publishing a supplement to the books of births, marriages and deaths etc in the just over 20 years since the books were published (probably in PDF format for easy distribution rather than a book as such). I would love to hear from any Howman descendants. Thanks Ray

The website may have disappearred by now but here are 2 places that might be worth trying but they may not give you any result: 1) The National Library of Australia (NLA) has been attempting to record websites that are in danger of disappearing without trace and are archiving them: http://trove.nla.gov.au/ 2) A copy of the thesis may have been lodged with the Society of Australian Genealogists and if so you should be able to access it even if not online: http://www.sag.org.au/ The SAG site is not an easy one to use, but perservere as it's often worth the effort.

I wonder if someone with access to the index of Victorian Inquests could look and see if there was an inquest into the death of Samuel Alfred Pearce died 8th October 1907 in Ballarat. Unable to get to the PRO at the moment. Thanks Paul

Hi, I am so proud of my grandfather, William Gustav KLEIN, and he should be named, the original inventor of the telegraph pole lifter who worked for the P.M.G., Department during 1930-1941 at the NSW Strathfield pole yards. Otherwise the job would of taken 80 men to lift.The P.M.G. took the credit for his invention because he worked in their hours. Just a bit of trivia for you !!!!

Hi all, rather hoping SKS would help out with a look up the Fischer girls- Louisa Frances FISCHER - possibly to an American surname STITT about 1930-1933 Elsie May FISCHER to a Mr.OWEN probably about 1927. Charlotte FISCHER to a Mr.ANDERSON probably about 1939-1945 thanking you. Robert from the Dandenongs ..

Around year 2000 I found my ancestors on a family tree on the net somewhere in Australia. Some person was researching about Australian pastors. My parents Inge and Ann (born Behrend) Svensson and my relatives Jean-Pierre and Dorothea (born Behrend)Hürel where there as well as my mothers parents who at the time lived in India (as British citizens). I'd be very thankful is someone could point me to that paper work. I can't any longer find the information on the net.

Agree this marriage reg # 12439 Muriel Marshall date of birth 26/7/1902 She died 22/12/2000 and is in Altona Memorial Cemetery location CGO TC 014 (which is right beside Victor) This could be your Victor and his first wife (with maybe the children putting their parents back together) Suggest you check the death notices in the Melb Herald Sun for Victor and Muriel. You might be lucky and get some details of children and other family. Which would confirm everything. Nothing in the Ryerson Index. There are 3 Florence Mather(s) in the Springvale records. 1 buried at Fawkner with death 1933 (Might be his mother) You might need to buy a couple of certificates to confirm tho.
