and died in 1982 in Adelaide - South Australia, aged about 90.
In or aroud this time they headed for Ballarat in Victoria hence the births in the Sth East

and died on 27 Oct 1966 in Belair , South Australia, at age 76.

Bob sorry about the delay in answering
the name does not seem to ring any bells but it is quite possible he may be linked to the whyalla crowd
being that far over on the coast.Then again I could be wrong.

In answer to the piece you placed about burials.

It is a good start to find out more info from the council involved in where you think they are buried as they can do a very quick check on their data base, I remember I had a bit of trouble once where some were buried and went to 4 councils and found that the last one had 3 in their area and after a quick scout on the DB they found who I was looking for and to top it off they even rang the curator and arranged to have him meet me at the site, couldn't have wished for better service.

Sandra Thank you ever so much for that rather large file
But we still didnot find dear old EDITH TROWBRIDGE's birth date
Did you note the way her mother's name was spelt different ways
So now I am presuming that may be the case with the TROWBRIDGE's
as was the norm in those days and beyond.
I await your response once more

thank you once again
Wayne

Hi Wayne,

Yes did notice the different spellings of the mother, that's why I did a generic search under TR* which would bring up anything remotely like Trowbridge/Trubridge or the like.
No could not find Edith's birth or the parents births (Sophia and Robert).
Will look again shortly, had some others to help today as well.
Cheers Sandra

Sandra Thank you once again
I tried to answer last night but this "go daddy" host server kept coming up Oh no I thought someone has hijacked the site but according to my lad the computer wiz found that genwise went off the air for some reason maby because it was the big launch and their servers could not handle the traffic and shut down, and I have tendency to believe that .

Any how don't rush, time is not an essence

Edith Sarah TROUBRIDGE was born at Meadows on 5 Nov 1871, the daughter of William Hill Coates TROUBRIDGE and Rebecca CLAPCOTT

.. that any help?

Lewis Thank you for your reply but it is not the one I am looking for although they are part of the Trowbridge family as in those days they just wrote what they thought was right as it sounded.
The lady I am looking for is Edith Louisa Trowbridge and her father was Robert (also known as Samuel) and her mother was called Sophia Aufderheide ( also known as Fanny Louisa).
But battle on as we may and it will appear out of the blue just like that.
once again thank you
Wayne

John Briant Whiteford made this comment on my wall. I will repost it here in the hope that someone in SA can be of assistance:

"Hi Geniaus, I am searching for one of my grandfather's brothers viz. William in South Australia as he was married twice and had 8 children of whom I have the christian names.I only know the name of his second wife. I am also looking for info on James and Jane Whiteford who arrived in Adelaide. S.A. on board the Shackamaxon from Liverpool on the 18 January 1853 with 3 children one of whom I am descended from another William!! They were born in Renfrew Scotland 1823"
