This doesn't match with Louie's age at death as 49 in 1949. Seems a hugh coincidence though!

Cherilyn, is there a way to purchase cheaper certificates in W.A.?

To confirm that they are the correct family, I will purchase one of the girls marriage certificates, also possibly Thomas' death cert.

Joy

I'm afraid not. WA certs are very pricey sadly.

WAGS (Western Australian Genealogical Society) do have some records on fiche and CD but I don't think they provide full details, like the certs do.

Just out of curiousity, how are you related to this family line?

This might be of interest, Joy, it tells you what will be on the certs -

Thanks I will have a look at that site, Thomas was my great uncle.

Can you look up a marriage for Edith Mott and Clarence H Nott. She was born in 1907 in Cobar New South Wales and I have been told by another family researcher this was her husband's name but cannot find a marriage. He was supposed to be from the Broken Hill area which might mean also South Australia. Much appreciated - your offer is.

Hi Pittsy

This was an easy one :-)

I think he may have been born (and died) as Henry Clarence -

[father] HENRY F
[mother] EVA G
[district] BROKEN HILL

DEATH
21413/1978 NOTT HENRY CLARENCE

[mother] EVA GERTRUDE [nee BARBER]

Her birth was registered in 1908 -

[mother] ALICE
[district] COBAR

See http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au

Cherilyn

I will look for children now - very much appreciated.

Pittsy <3

Of course I won't because I forgot no NSW Births after 1910 - nevermind.

Pittsy :-S

Hey Pittsy

All is not lost - his death notice is listed at Ryerson Index site so you can request a lookup of it and it will hopefully list their names!

NOTT Henry Clarence Death notice 18AUG1978 Death late of Broken Hill Sydney Morning Herald 25AUG1978

Cannot find birth for Eva Gertrude Barber or Henry Freeman Nott - interested in searching further back with this Nott line to see if it links with my other Nott line.

Thanks Pittsy

Barrier Miner, Wednesday 12 February 1908
IN MEMORIAM.
NOTT.-In loving memory of our dear mother, Martha Nott, who departed this life on February 12, 1904. Gone, but not forgotten. Inserted by her loving daughter and son-in-law, M. A. and J. Dicker.

Seems to be SA connection - and a tree online has a brother of Thomas Brooks Nott as Henry Freeman Nott..., with father Thomas Freeman Nott. There is an article in the South Australian register in 1859 that states Thomas Brooks Nott as a son of surveyor Mr T. F. Nott.

Any connection?

This is exactly what I am looking for. I have an Emma Caroline Nott as witness to a member of the family on another tree branch in Truro SA. A mining area called Barton.

You are fantastic.

Pittsy

Cannot get a Ryerson look-up for the paper as they say no--one is available for the Barrier Miner for that period of time.

Pittsy

I wonder...

Barrier Miner, Monday 18 July 1932
Death of Mr. C. Barber
The death occurred in Adelaide on Saturday of Mr. Charles Barber at the age of 86 years. Mr. Barber was born at Northampton, England, and came with his parents to Australia in the immigrant ship Omega when he was six years of age. At an early age he was carting with bullock teams on the Adelaldo-Burra road, and later worked on the Adelaide-Port Darwin telegraph line. He came to Broken Hill about 1885. For many years there was a well (now silted up) on the old Mount Gipps Station which was sunk by him and which was known as Barber's Well. He left Broken Hill about 15 years ago for Adelaide, and has lived there ever since. He leaves two sons, Messrs. O. C. Barber, of Broken Hill, and A. B. Barber, of Adelaide, and three daughters, Mesdames H. Nott, G. King, and T. Smith, of Adelaide. There are 32 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Mr. L. Carroll, of Goldsbrough, Mort and Co., Chloride street, is a grandson.

-

Given the penchant in those days of referring to women as Mrs 'husband's initial' surname...and of course Eva may have gone to her parents' in SA after Harry's death. Which would explain why I can't find her death in NSW!

Brother O.C. Barber would be Oliver Charles - he died in NSW, parents Chas & Hannah.
