Thanks Gai, I found that one too. Same as you - couldn't find the wife.

MeGirl,

I spent a couple of hours searching this morning and I found a Chas W Stark but couldn't find his wife. Then I discovered that Kevin has another thread and there are a number of replies on it in regard to Walter Charlie Stark.

So I'm not searching anymore as they were all looking at American records which I don't have access to.

Gai

Still looking for Walter Charlie Stark - can't find anything in the Aussie records, will keep looking.

Yes, Cherilyn a lot of that plus fingers in ears!!!! Here she goes again with the family history - no enthusiasm whatsoever, lol :S

Lol MEgirl and Gai - and I can certainly relate to the eye-rolling thing!

:D

I'll have a look tomorrow night for you Kevin if no one else has found any more information for you.

Getting late here and it's an early start in the morning for us even on though it's Mothers day.

Gai

Why doesn't that ever work for me as I reckon I could be lying on the floor dying and I'd still get the "whats for dinner". I only have to mention the words family tree and they eyes roll and the ear plugs go in.

We had lamb chops, potato bake and crunchy coleslaw for dinner.

We had Chinese tonight - I knew if I stayed on here long enough the master would get the hint :-)

ah I went the wrong way (added hours on instead of subtracting them!)

yes sure, no problem. happy to help if I can.

p.s. my procrastinating over dinner has paid off - hubby's going out to get Chinese ;) yay!

its 11.21 am here.
i will be asking for more help on here as i think that jessie`s brother may have gone out there also,but im off out soon so wont post it just yet. may i pm you with the details please ?
Kev

No Australia. It is 6pm here...should be organsing some food soon I suppose!!! Isn't it wee hours of the morning in the UK now?

Im still here. Are you in the uk?

sorry i missed you, looks like it is all under control... :) good luck!

thankyou.x

Your forgiven, just remember in future we need all the facts when you post on here. Have a good day!

Megirl.
Thank you and `sorry`
Ill take a look at those links.
Kev.

Kevin, A tip for the future - give all the information you have at the beginning. It saves needless searching. I have been researching these details for hours today. We have been chasing down a son, who doesn't exist when all the time it was a very young husband.

The South Australian Birth, Marriage & Death Directory can help you with a copy of Jessie's death certificate - no online database. Go to http://www.familyhistorysa.info/births-marriages-deaths/ which will give you the details of how to apply for the certificate.

For the newspaper article go to http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=Novis&|-decade=191&|-year=1914&|-monthInYear=February|monthInYear% click on heading Sudden Death, you will go the the story on the next page and it has a print option on left hand side.

Cheers.
