You have parents for Katie?
Possible death maybe??

Thanks gibbo.

Birth 11901/1914 ROBSON KATIE - HENRY - HELEN M - BALLINA

1948 death possibly ruled out by:

Marriage 3129/1904 BARNES FREDERICK W - HARRISON KATE - SYDNEY


Well, I can't see a birth for Kate HARRISON and I can't find Kate or Frederick in E/R that fits with Punchbowl.

 

[DaveHam9]

So, do I have the right birth for Katie? And we need more to rule out Kate.

Would have to have been a divorce if the right death because that death is after the 2nd marriage.

Death 8733/1941 BARNES FREDERICK WILFRED - JAMES - MARIA - CANTERBURY

Methodist 3C 0000273 BARNES FREDERICK W 16 Jun 1941

But where is Kate? Supposed to be Methodist Rookwood. Curious- it's Jane:

Methodist 3C 0000273 BARNES JANE 30 Oct 1948

According to a tree this is the birth:

4247/1880 HARRISON KATE - WILLIAM - SARAH - BALMAIN

So, still looking for Katie.

A real mystery this one, Dave...

 

[DaveHam9]

Yes Geoff. At least we have ruled out Kate HARRISON.

All three I presume have died. Ryerson is usually up to date with the NSW deaths. The index is incomplete for other states.

Well, the on-line Divorce index currently ends at 1923 and in being extended to 1930. For surviving divorce files 1923-1963 and 1970 search Archives Investigator. So looks like lots are missing.

Edit: Yeah, I checked out those divorce files...

DANKS Katie Nash Death notice 29OCT1953 Death late of Drummoyne, formerly of Gladesville Sydney Morning Herald 30OCT1953

Spouse is Samuel so that death ruled out by this marriage:

7461/1887 DANKS SAMUEL - ESMOND KATE WASH - BRISBANE WATER

 

[horse]

Oooooooo, so married again and not dead, if no divorce then a bit of scandal :biggrin:

 

[horse]

Damn, no scandal

 

[DaveHam9]

No sign of a remarriage in NSW to 1962. No sign in E/R searching for just 'Katie' in 1949 onwards.

 

[horse]

Yeah, just checking the Kate/Katie marriages/deaths

 

[horse]

Nothing standing out, using Kate/Katie - Henry/Helen/Ellen..

 

[horse]

You have parents for Katie?
Possible death maybe??

This is a real thorn in the side....

Though the date is wrong....

 

[DaveHam9]

I'm sure that is Kate HARRISON and so 1948 death is ruled out.

I'd say we are stuck. Can't search Ryerson without a surname. Any marriage interstate won't be on-line.
