Joey was on electoral rolls in Canning/Moore WA up until 1980. Last time Andrew appeared was in 1954 so he must have died before her.

Death for Andrew, quite young

HOPE ANDREW ADIE Male [age] 55 [father] WILLIAM [mother] MARY [district] CANNING [reg] 74 [year] 1956

He died 15/5/1956.
Joey lived to be 99 and died 29/6/1999.

Think you already have this info but may help other connections.

There is also a Jean Margaret HOPE of Kalamunda who died 16/2/1998 aged 63, and William HOPE who died 30/8/1980 aged 57.

I will send you a PM with a likely connection.
