Hello Eve: It looks like Felix, his wife and Florence age 4 arrived in Melbourne, Australia in February 1885 aboard the "Iberia". See http://210.8.122.120/indexes/index_search_results.asp Florence Louisa (the child) died in Caulfield, (Melbourne) in 1893: Digger - Federation Index. Victoria 1889-1901 ------------------- Surname: WERRY Given Names: Flor Louisa Event: D Sex: F Spouse Surname/Father: Felix Spouse Gvn Names/Mother: Francis Louise STAPELY Age: 13 Age Code: Birth Place: Death Place: Cauld Year: 1893 Reg. Number: 5378 And Frances Louisa (wife of Felix) married James HALL in 1897 in Victoria, Australia: Digger - Federation Index. Victoria 1889-1901 -------------------- Surname: WERRY Given Names: Frances Louise Event: M Sex: Spouse Surname/Father: HALL Spouse Gvn Names/Mother: Jas Age: Age Code: Birth Place: ENG Death Place: Year: 1897 Reg. Number: 3054 By cross-referencing the marriage, it appears that James HALL was born in Windsor, likely the suburb of Melbourne. I checked births through 1913, but saw none to James and Frances. On the 1909 Electoral Rolls of Victoria, James and Frances Louisa HALL are living at 30 Malakoff St. St. Kilda (suburb of Melbourne) home duties for her, gardener for him. They are still there in 1914 but now James is a Mason's fixer and Frances is Frances Louise (rather than Louisa). Same information in 1919 and 1924. In 1931 address is 18 Malakoff St. St. Kilda (likely a re-numbering rather than a move). Frances disappears after 1933 and there are too many James HALLs to distinguish which one he might be - none are at the above address. Although this entry is Florence rather than Frances, I think this is her, it's the right suburb and close to her right age: Digger - Death Index. Victoria 1921-1985 -------------------- Surname: HALL Given Names: Florence Louisa Father: Unknown Mother: Unknown UNKNOWN Death Place: S KILDA Age: 84 Age Code: Year: 1934 Reg Number: 3642 Event: D Hope some of this is helpful to you.
