William G Miller 1877 Gravesend - 1940 Australia?

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Jacqueline Report 30 Sep 2020 15:26

William George Miller 1877 Gravesend, son of Thomas and Alice Eliza Miller, appears with his parents and siblings on the 1881 and with his widowed father and sisters on the 1891.The only other possible sightings of him are on Ancestry Worldwide - Australia WW1 Service Records 1914 - 1920 and Australia Death Index 1787 - 1985. The Death Index gives his parents as Alice Eliza and Thomas.

Could a member of Genes with Ancestry Worldwide please add any further information?

William was my grandmother's brother but I cannot remember any talk of him which seems strange as all other siblings, their children, grandchildren etc. were frequently spoken of.

May thanks in anticipation.

Many thanks to you both. The information has been added to my public tree hopefully helping distant family in Australia to find more of their roots and solving William's disappearance for me.

If you find anything else please add to this thread.

Once again many thanks.
