If you didn't mind spending some money, you ought to be able to order the DC for

If he had been married or had children their names should be listed.

It's possible that Brisbane Council would tell you who arranged the various funerals, but not their addresses. The later ones for the remaining spouse would probably be more useful than the earlier ones

Thank you all for the info on Alfred Burgess/ Margaret Hanna Hall there is a lot of great information that i can follow up,especially family from recent times that I can maybe meet.

Thanks again suzanne

So it was him who married Margaret Hope Nicol in 1862?

Hi yes I have some info ,its his 2nd marraige and I have 5 children from this marraiage
Caroline,
William,
Julie,
Victor,
Thomas.
The reason I am looking for further info on the family is my grandfather never had any contact with his brothers or sisters from the 1st marraige of his father Alfred Burgess or the 2nd I beleive so i would like to find some distant cousins that might be my age born 1950.
Thank you all for so much info it will be of great help.

It seems strange to be buried with a 'stranger' only 5 years after they died. There must be some sort of relationship.

You could try online newpapers on trove.nla.gov.au.

(1935 entry relating to Mr & Mrs Alfred Burgess deleted - Alfred seems to be missing prior to 1915)

She married as Anna Hall and they appear to have had 3 children

William James Burgess 1883 Alfred, Anna Queensland

Julia Althea Burgess 1887 Alfred, Anna Queensland

Victor Lancelot Burgess 1889 Alfred, Anna Queensland

Australia, presumably?

Unless they were well-to-do, newspaper announcements are unlikely, I would have thought

Do you know if they actually had children?

They will be deceased

have you done any research yourself?

Marraige of Alfred Burgess & Margaret Hanna Hall qld 24 April 1880 looking for any newspaper announcements and their childrens wher abouts
