Elizabeth Annie HILDEBRANDT.
I am searching for any information about this woman please.

I do not know where she was born (c.1840), but she lived in Victoria, Australia, and died in 1915. She married Richard Davis, Feb 25th, 1862, in Castlemaine, Victoria.
They had at least one child, a daughter Elizabeth 1868-1945, who married Charles (Carl) ROSENHAIN in Castlemaine,
Victoria on Nov 20th 1885.

Many thanks, Pam

do you have her death certificate, it usually gives alot of info about her family eg parents, where she was born, how long in Australia etc

her marriage cert should also give parents names

??? Castlemaine NSW or do you mean Victoria????

search for BMD's in VIC https://online.justice.vic.gov.au/bdm/index-search?action=getHistIdxSearchCriteria

Thanks Gael, that's a good start.

Hi Pam,

I presume you have these details, if you get their marriage certificate it should give details of parents names. If you go to the website that Victoria gave you, you can download an image direct to your computer for about $A20.00.

Pam,

I have checked and have been unable to find a death of Elizabeth in 1915, do you have her death certificate, or is it just what family have told you?

All the previous information that I sent was found in Victoria.

Thank you so much for your help.

No, all family history but little was said about Victoria either! I knew some of the family were there ofcourse, but hadn't found the connection as to why.

I also knew they had one daughter, called Elizabeth also, and she married Charles Rosenhain. Together they had five kids and my Grandpa was one of them.

Now if only I could get some info about how she came to be in Australia in the first place?

Thanks so much for your generousity in finding this for me.

P

not Elizabeth but a relative maybe?????
