Time frame ( and some unscrambling/explanation of names) would be helpful

Are you related - if so , how? this might help us.

Born Croll 1916, married a Campbell in 1939

Welcome to the boards, Carl.

Have you contacted others who have the family in their tree on here?

Putting 'Australia' in your title might be productive

What is the relevance - if any - of NIXON?

Postem added to Greta's birth entry mentions Marjorie 1910

Thanks for all your help and findings, I really appreciate it. Sorry I wasn't very clear in my first post, i'm not a regular poster so not very experienced with forum etiquette.

There is a Greta and James living at Lot11, A'Beckett Rd In Victoria 1968 james is a metal worker

also in the same district there is a Phillip Duncan Campbell a mamager living with a Gladys Joyce and a Robert Anthony ( a fitter) 1968

in 1972 Greta and James are still at the address given above but
Phillip whom is still in the district but at a different address is only at home with a Gay Elizabeth

I do not know if these are whom you seek but the only other Gretta is in Queensland but not with a James..
I will keep looking

nb. Greta and James dissappear after 1972. I cannot check the ryeson index because the site has crashed .

The info posted was added as clarification !!!!

i have received information today greta and james lived at 14 googona street woomera south australia a letter dated the 14/12/1967 was sent saying they were moving to new zealand as a year later they appear to be at an address in victoria they might of not left australia after all
