Not quite. I did think it was Thomas Chilton & Sophia nee.Cox......but something doesn't add up. So it's on hold, untill I find a baptism.

A Robert Robbins and a Rachel King both in Electoral District Parramatta in 1930 and a few years later.

Can't get the Sub-district or address from the index. Need a sub or I need to be in the library. :biggrin:

The Rachael who died 1938 was living in Harold St, Fairfield.

So the 1938 Parramatta death would be right for Rachel King.??

 

[DaveHam9]

Maybe Steve.

Fairfield is not in Division of Parramatta.

No names in the Funeral notice. Just CofE burial.

Electoral rolls might help. Especially if Rachel is living with Robbins family.

Looks like Robert is in Reid in 1937 and Rachel in Robertson.

Probably the right death.

Robert not buried in same cemetery.

 

[p.risboy]

Looks like Robert is in Reid in 1937 and Rachel in Robertson.

You're talking double dutch to a Bucks boy.:2fun:

I'll check it out on google.

Parramatta to Fairfield. 5.5 miles or so.?

Robertson is miles away.!!

1937
SD = Granville.. Robert 73 or 78 Bursill St., Guilford, fruiterer. With Ethel Selina, mill hand.

Electoral Division names. Not all named after a nearby town or suburb.

Seems we won't find them at the same address.

That death a bit more likely now.

Perhaps living together before 1930 roll. 1913 ?
