If it is the date of death that I found on the New South Wales death reg he has a middle int J.

Was he born around 1868 ?? his Death cert should tell you his date of birth.

No, just on his Death certificate that he was 38yrs in NSW sorry I just realised I was 10 years out he must have been born around 1858 in Lancashire England. His parent's are listed as unknown.

Thanks

If William died at the age of 38 in 1900 then he would have been born 1862.

Judith,
On their marriage certificate it obviously does not give a fathers name.
Did they just leave it blank.

Regards Vera

Judith

Judith Report 1 Jun 2010 13:57

Hi Vera

Yes all those details are blank.....same on the death cert...and when I look on England bDM is just too hard as I don't know who I am looking for....

Judith,
Have been on the 1861 census ( born 1858 according to the dates and age you gave).........there are lots for Lancashire.Very frustrating without a town to go by.
