1886
FITZGERALD - On the 15th August, at Amess-street,
North Carlton, the wife of R. A. Fitzgerald, of a daughter.

No notice for the 1888 birth and no further hits in Trove for "R A Fitzgerald" in Family Notices so bit of a puzzle.

Thanks Geoff.

I spent three hours at the local library today so have lots of images to go through.

I could not even find Rev Angel in the Summary Book for 1911.

I can't find any queries yet from my visit to the library. There will be some addresses I can't read on census and perhaps some 1913 electoral roll queries.

Thanks Geoff.

Damn stupid. The old records used abbreviations to save space now there is no relationship set up to turn them into the full name. Searching for Richard does not find the record.

Anc. transcription gives 1886 for Mary J birth.
