But, very true. :biggrin:

We had another 'Fred' we chased for years in E/R and newspaper reports only to find he never was born. We didn't have a Fred senior and a Fred junior in E/R after all. We just had the one Fred.

We have no problem with 1923 and 1930 reg and burials.

Qld. Marriage 31 Jul 1860/B0049 Ahles Fredrick - Best Jane

We have a burial in Qld. on 17 June 1889 for a Fred AHLES.

I can't find age at death or a death reg.

It's not this one who used a different name in the E/R:

Most curious. It's grave 169.

Fred and Jane are together in 168. So it must be a son. They must have registered some plots but 169 got used before 168.

I can see nothing in TROVE.

I can see no Inquest file or hospital admission.

Nothing in the Trustee files.

Birth 6 Mar 1880/C02172 Ahles James Theodore - Frederick - Jane Best

I searched for a death in 1889 using just a* and no hit that fitted.

Grave 168 has a headstone with transcription for Frederick and Jane. Seems there is no transcription for 169.

Another curious thing. A second site that has photos of the headstones does not mention the AHLES.
