Not sure if they are the same add. :rolleyes:

I'm lost then Geoff.

Birth 16019/1874 McALPINE ISABELLA - JOHN - ISABELLA - NEWCASTLE

2nd Marriage 11190/1909 WILLIS RICHARD - FELIX ISABELLA S - GLEN
INNES

Birth of son 17186/1911 WILLIS GEORGE V - RICHARD - ISABELLA - LISMORE

1930 NSW Electoral Roll - South Sydney - Redfern
WILLIS Isabella, 3 Rennie street, home duties
WILLIS Richard, 3 Rennie street, labourer

Then it appears there is no sign of them together in E/R and no death for either in NSW.

The death in Armidale must be a different Richard then. ???

Birth 18364/1873 WILLIS RICHARD - JOHN - LOUISA LYDIA - SCONE

I will agree it seems the Armidale death listed in post #1 is not the death of the Richard further up that post.

I didn't look at all the 1930 E/Rs until a few minutes ago. A 2nd one in the Armidale, Uralla, Scone, .. area.

One tree which won't load has Isabella born 1874 and death in 1901.

I can't see how that can be. With parents as John & Isabella this is the only death that would then fit:

11001/1901 DRYSDALE ISABELLA - - ISABELLA - RANDWICK

Not sure about 1901, I can't see that tree, but I did notice this earlier, but discarded it for obvious reasons...

That's Isabella's mother.

No sign of a divorce in NSW.

Can't find either of them after 1930. :confused:
