Hi
I am looking for marriages in Victoria.
Archie walter Drewry and Frances Reid, sometime after 1924,
and Kate (Kathleen) Drewry and Errol Sylvester Jenkins, also after 1924.

Also trying to find Kate and Frances (who were friends) coming into Australia sometime prior to 1924, which is when they arrived for the second time. I am told by Kates' daughter that kate and Frances arrived together, and stayed with Frances' sister in Victoria.
Any help pinning these details down would be much appreciated.
Reghards,
Karen
