Mildred Keeler 1921-2010 married George Mahar 29/04/1941 Narrogin, Western Australia. I believe they had 3 male and 2 female children. I would be very much appreciative if i could find the identity of these people. Their great x 2 grandmother was a sibling of my 3 x great grandad.. Thanks

Maybe the same family? Found on the Trove Australian newspaper site - http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/search?adv=y


The West Australian (Perth, WA : 1879 - 1954) Friday 4 July 1947

"The engagement is announced of: Florence May, third eldest daughter of Mrs. Mildred Mahar, of Yealering, and the late J. Keeler, to Kevin, only son of Mrs. F. M. Saunders, Havelock-street, Narrogin."

Hi Mark

I noticed these 'Keeler' (WAus) marriages -
1894 Katherine m Thomas Field
1905 Albert Edgar m Marie Sapperveinne
1917 Ivy V m Frank Biddle
1917 Nellie m Daniel Birch
1920 Elsie A m Gilbert J Marsh
1929 Millie m William Mahar
1941 Mildred m George M Mahar (b1910)

The 'W A State Library' (on-line) has an 'Ask a Librarian' service ..they may be able to trace one or two of them from the electoral rolls.
There are a few 'Mahar's listed in the 'White Pages' phone book.
