It's possible his mother is not Annie. I wonder how reliable that is.

Looking for the birth around 1860 for Elijah and marriage of his parents.

Thanks,

Dave

Thanks Geoff.

Then I would expect Ann's maiden name to be MURRAY.

Beats me, Dave... I can't see a Johnstone = Murray mar. My thoughts were probably adoption or similar

Can't find a Funeral notice in TROVE

John is a bit of a mystery - no birth and no death yet.

John Wall 1949 New South Wales Macquarie

 

[horse]

Mystery is a bit of an understatement, Dave..

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes. Does the occupation look as though it's the right one in 1949? The Division is right if he stayed in the area of Katoomba.

 

[horse]

Oh! He was an Engine Driver in the earlier one...

 

[horse]

Yep, Engine Driver 43 and 49 ....

 

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff. That is progress.

 

[horse]

Something to sleep on, Dave... Speak later.

 

[DaveHam9]

Ok, thanks Geoff.
