This one is a lost cause. I didn't realise there are 19 possible deaths in Victoria between 1869 and 1931.

Thanks cp,

That narrows it to how many? = 9

I tried SOUTH and Johannesburg and South Africa and a few others in the birth field but zero hits.

Regards,

Dave

Hello Dave :biggrin:

Have you checked the wills out in VIC? Might be lucky that one might be his maybe.

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes gibbo.

It's not the one in Dandenong or the one in Bendigo. They seem to be the only two in TROVE.

The one who died in 1901 died in NZ. Spouse is Catherine.
