Hi All I have been searching for the death of Felix Rickard Werry born Islington 1855 for some time!! Today I decided to "look outside the Box" of UK and there it was in Australia 1886 His wife Frances Louise Werry is still "hiding" they were married in 1883 in Hackney Felix and his 2 brothers were Lithographic Artists but no one mentioned that Felix had gone down under. Now does anyone have access to Australian Census if there was one between 1883 and 1886 or if you can "see him" in Australia during that period to see if there is any other information about them. He was living with Frances Louisa her Husband Robert Holmes and their daughter Florence in 1881 Then Robert dies and Felix steps into the breach and marries Frances in 1883 So did he go to Australia with or without Frances and Florence?? sad he only had a short time before he died in 1886 I wonder what the story was??? Eve (Canada now)

Have a look at Trove via Google as it is the Australian newspapers on line.

Gday Eve Using Trove (www.trove.nla.gov.au), a search for Felix Rickard Werry finds the following death notice in the Argus in Melbourne : On 14th December 1886, at his residence, 50 Clara Street, South Yarra, Felix Rickard Werry of consumption, late of Dalston, London, aged 32 years. You could also apply to the Victorian registry of births, deaths and marriages for his death certificate. I hope that this helps Barrie -----Original Message----- From: london-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:london-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Shirley Arabin Sent: Monday, 6 June 2011 5:00 PM To: Eve Ferguson; london-l@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LON] Felix Werry Have a look at Trove via Google as it is the Australian newspapers on line.
