Sorry Angela, no matching marriage for Wm to Mabel. And too many deaths for Wm Mitchells so need more info!

Nothing in Vic either.

Hi Ann

Yours first as I had the right disk in :)

Surname: TANNER
Given Names: Sarah
Event: D
Father: Unknown
Mother:
Age: 32
Birth Place: LINCOLNSHIRE
Year: 1854
Reg Number: 2634

Seems a good match but no children found in Vic or NSW. Her convict record mentions Lincoln/Kesteven, though it says she was 19 in 1836/7.

Maybe try a lookup volunteer at www.raogk.org for Tasmania?

Also, someone has 'claimed' her at http://www.claimaconvict.net/page54.html
Appears to be a different person who has 'claimed' Chas Tanner:

Might be worth making contact?

Good luck!

Hi Cherilyn
You were kind enough to help me with marriage for my Great Grandmother's sister Elizabeth Seaton to Charles Tanner, a widower born 1816 Bristol, in Prahan in 1854.
The marriage cert stated that Charles had 2 living and 3 dead children by his first wife.
I am investigating a convict by the name of Charles Tanner who was deported for 7 years to Tasmania in 1833. In 1837 he married another convict Sarah Marvin. A son, Charles Tanner died 25.9.1841 age 22 months in Hobart.
Charles was freed in 1840, Sarah in 1843. They may have gone to Sydney.
I was wondering if this is the same Charles Tanner, widower, who married Elizabeth Seaton.
So, Cherilyn, please may I ask if you would mind looking for possible births of children to Charles Tanner/Sarah Marvin between 1840-54 in NSW or Victoria and possible death of Sarah Tanner (Marvin) before 1854.
Regards
Ann

Hi Cherilyn..I have found my dads brothers record in the Australian Army.His name is William Mitchell and was born on the 23 Apr 1911 in Manchester England.He enlisted 8 July 1940 at Paddington NSW and locality on enlistment was Kings Cross NSW.His date of discharge was 11 Mar 1941.His next of kin is a Mabel Londen.Would you be able to see if there is a marraige for them please.I dont know who this Mabel is,she could be just a friend but I hope she was his fiance as a photo once existed of him with a young lady.Otherwise could you see if you can find a marraige for him to somebody else and his death...basically anything at all!..thanks ever so much......

Hi Cheryle

Sorry I can't find any remarriage - must have been later than 1959 or in another state?

Cherilyn

Hi Barbara

Can't find his enlistment either sorry but this is the marriage:

22119/1943 COOKSON DAVID POLLARD [m] WILLSON GRACE OLIVE COROWA

Guessing you already had that!!!

Sorry
:(

Hi,
I have just ordered a marriage cert for my husbands grandparents (married 1920 Woollahra)because it has been impossible to find anything out for his grandmother Eileen May Chard in NSW. So in 3 weeks I'll finally know more on her but his grandfather Reginald George Dunn remarried to Phyllis Joan but I dont know her maiden name. I have found some electoral rolls for her after the marriage but how do I find their marriage.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
Cheryle.

Nudge for ach

Thanks for your help Cherilyn, and for getting back to me so quickly!

Michelle

Cherilyn you are a wunder kid!!! Have rung and left a couple of messages, so now we sit and wait with everything crossed!! Thank you so m uch, regards Linda :))))

Hi Michelle

You could try here
http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/index/immigration.asp

His marriage or death cert would give you more clues about his life but Qld certs are quite pricey.

Was he previously married? 1924 seems late for a 1st marriage if he was born in 1873...

Henrietta Maud died in 1961 in Qld (reg C1065), dau of Wm & Henrietta Jane (nee BEASLEY). She was born in Qld in 1896 (reg C10061). Her parents married in Qld in 1893 (C1521).

All the best
Cherilyn.
