Hi Paul I googled "William Harvey Brookman" +Tasmania and the website of the Descendants of Benjamin Head came up. Apparently William's second wife was the wife of Winnifred's brother Claude.

Died in 1974. His second wife was his sister-in-law, born Lydia Joy Ferguson in 1892. She married William's brother, Claude, and when he died, William, soon after the death of his first wife (that's just family say-so). I have a death date of 1997 (105?) for her, which I'm unsure of. Thanks to everyone... Paul

Thanks Kate Seems I have had a very senior moment and I am feeling very embarrassed. Yes it is the Timaru in NZ I am referring to, and his Christian name was Arthur not Thomas! Here is what I already have "Arthur Mylrea Corlett was born 12 December 1884 in Ballaugh (Family Search) to William Corlett and Margaret Maria Mylrea. He is listed with his family in Ballaugh in the 1891, and 1901 censuses Sometime between 1901 and 1916 he emigrated to New Zealand. When he enlisted on 3 May 1916 he gave his next of kin as his sister Laura Jane Edith Corlett of Croit-ne-Gurrin, Ballaugh . His last New Zealand address was 598 Barbadoes St, Christchurch He had been working as a farm hand for G Flemming of Methven During the war he was a member of the 3rd New Zealand Rifle Brigade He returned to NZ on the SS ‘Arawa” departing Tilbury on 1st April 1919 and he was discharged on the 12 June 1919. In 1922 he married Nellie Tayles.( 1922/7143) He was a farmer and they lived at Gleniti, NZ, which is an area of Timaru, south of Christchurch on the South Island He died on 5 November 1960 in Timaru, NZ. Nellie died in 1971 (1971/41049)" Marcia > > > I can't find a Timaru in Tasmania.

Their son William was my great grandfather. I have done alot of searching and found a lot of info but one thing I cannot find is William Snr birth certificate (even though references suggest he was born in Qld) I have come up empty. Would love to chat more about the MacLellans...who then changed to McLellan!! Cheers Donna McLellan

I note that he has sold the chemist business in Burnie in 1953: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article69495143 Since he is 65 years old, I am guessing that he is retiring. His first wife (Winifred Mary Head) dies in 1954 in Burnie: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article23459882 What do you know of the 2nd wife? Name? date/place marriage? date/place of her death? Any of these might be helpful. But if he's sold his business and his wife has died, maybe he hasn't got anything to tie him to Burnie and he may have moved on to somewhere else. Kerry

I'm trying to locate the death of William Harvey BROOKMAN, who most likely died in Burnie, Tas in the late 1950s. He was a local pharmacist ("next to Coles") and seems to have had a daily radio spot (15 mins) after the evening news. He married twice - I believe his second wife lived to be over 100! Paul

Hi Tom After posting that we started trawling through Electoral rolls, Deaths with names of parents and family notices in Trove. The search was for another branch and not my own so I left it up to the OP to look at family trees on Ancestry. I don't think it was a successful search but one has to try all avenues. Thanks for responding. Regards, Kate Sydney, Australia

Hello all Does anyone have access to USA records, my Ancestry only covers UK/Aus There is a record for William Colepepper New York Census of Inmates in Almshouses and Poorhouses, 1830-1929. Father Charles Colepepper Birth c 1838. Having a copy would be much appreciated. Thank you. Regards, Kate Sydney, Australia
