NEWBERY.-June 28, 1915, at his late residence, Clevedon-road, Hurstville, William Owen Newbery, late of Post and Telegraph Department, dearly beloved husband of Ada Newbery, aged 65 years.


Several births in SA which I find quite curious. Trees have the marriage in Adelaide but I have found this although I can't find it in the NSW index. Frederick was a tailor.

William Owen b. 14 Feb 1850 or 14 Jun 1850?

A few trees have that, Dave.. Probably got it from this, if correct William then could be. Though a bit too far north

Oh! Possibly a draper in 1913..

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

I didn't have that appointment record.

Warialda is correct. Draper is a real mystery. No William Owen junior or a 2nd one in my tree.

I should have said that one [Draper] was Hurstville 1913...

It's the right family - Ada = 2nd wife and two daughters from 1st marriage so draper is very odd. He moved to Hurstville to live with a married daughter.

Aged 65 in 1915 so did he retire from public service? He didn't have to retire in 1913 or earlier on account of age.

Mr. A. Newbery, the postmaster, has
been suffering again from his old complaint, lung
trouble, and has been confined to his bed. He is
now able to get about again, but has not been in the
office yet.

The initial is A but must be an error.

He retired in June 1911.

Thanks Geoff.

Not found in 1913 last time we looked. I didn't have the wedding notice last time - found today.

It has to be him in 1897 in Warialda but what is the event?

That is a brother. And very clever. He was not discharged from the army until 22 Oct 1916.

The births and deaths in Adelaide are a mystery - not all births and not all deaths can be found for some reason.

I'll resume this tomorrow.
