Name: Barbara Jean Chilvers
Gender: Female
Electoral Year: 1943
State: Western Australia

with Gertrude Caroline, John Edward and John Henry at 1 Wilson Street.

Looking at other E Rs, I think John Henry, stevedore and Gertrude Caroline are the parents of B J and J E.



Australia Marriage Index, 1788-1950 about Barbara J Chilvers
Name: Barbara J Chilvers
Marriage Place: Western Australia
Registration Place: Fremantle, Western Australia
Registration Year: 1941

Think 1941 is a typo and it should be 1944 as I previously found.

If you google "John Lunghi artist" you will find pictures of some of his paintings on various websites.

:-D at Lesley!!
Threads don't hang around long before someone replies :-D

It is best if you can to stay at your computer for as long as possible. Although your introduction was pretty clear cut, sometimes the OP needs clarification or additional information before a search can move forward ;-)

They appear to have written a book together.
