Hello,

PATERSON, JOHN
Marriage/Relationship:1873 - HOBART,Tasmania ( WOOLDRIDGE, HELEN )

Children:
246564 PATERSON WALTER WILLIAM 1874
246562 PATERSON MAY 1876
246560 PATERSON MARTHA 1879
246558 PATERSON TASMAN 1881
246561 PATERSON ANNIE 1883
246559 PATERSON JOHN 1885
246563 PATERSON DONALD 1890

That does not necessarily mean they married in 1873 or that the marriage was in Tasmania.

There are 3x John PATERSON born in Tasmania 1877-1893 so I'm trying to find the right one to fit this marriage:

The Sydney Morning Herald - Saturday 20 November 1920
MARRIAGES
PATERSON - STIMSON.-October 9, at Church of Christ City Temple, Sydney, by A. T. Eaton, John, third son of late J. Paterson and Mrs. Paterson, of Hobart Tas., to Doris, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Stimson, of Clifton Gardens, Mosman. Hobart papers please copy.

The other two have parents as Andrew & Sarah Jane BEVERIDGE and Frederick John & Martha SKINNER.

1922, 1928 & 1936 TAS Electoral Roll - Denison - New Town
PATERSON John, 59 Cross st., engineer
PATERSON Doris Pearl, 59 Cross st., home duties

1943, 1949 & 1954 TAS Electoral Roll - Franklin - Nelson
PATERSON John, 514 Sandy Bay rd., engineer
PATERSON Doris Pearl, 514 Sandy Bay rd., home duties

After 1954 ???

Dave

Doris Pearl died 1975.

Now how do i know this :biggrin:

There is a online will in the Tassie archives for her. Mentions heaps of names but no husband mentioned so i guess he must have died before her.


Paterson Doris Pearl 1975 AD960/1/152
PATERSON Doris 85 Cremation 10-Jun-1975 SANDY BAY

There is a will for a John Paterson in 1964 but wife's name doesnt tally.
The other will for a John Paterson isnt online, just the index for it.

Paterson John 1969 AD960/1/121

PATERSON John 83 Cremation 3-Jun-1969 SANDY BAY

I don't need to go there but I bet we have a connection to Scotland on John's side. We do on other side because Doris's mother was born in Scotland.
