Thanks Geoff.

Not sure what we have. 2x Jane M Morrison. One in Lilley in 1925. Other Jane H. G. but can't find the middle names?

Can't find four of the children. Can't find the marriage to Cragg. Can't find the death for William senior. Looks to be 1921 now with Jane in Qld. in 1921 and then her death in WA in 1922.

Be back later.

Thanks Geoff.

Mary Elizabeth is not the right one.

93 Park Street fits so it has to be Robert who married Mary.


Marriage 1894/C0821 Richard William Arney - Jeanie Morrison

How does Jane Miller Morrison fit in?

1912 QLD Electoral Roll - Herbert - Townsville
MORRISON David Miller, Nelson st., marine engineer
MORRISON Jane Miller, Warburton st., home duties


??
1925 QLD Electoral Roll - Lilley - Toombul
MORRISON Jane Miller, Peek's, Dorsett, Collingwood st., Albion, nurse

Peek's means she is living at the same address as a Peek family ??

Can't see a marriage or a death in Qld.

Thanks Geoff.

The children of W M M senior probably born in Scotland. Only have arrival for William junior so far.

Don't know if William senior arrived or if he died in Scotland.
