Normally we'd suggest that you contact the relevant states 'ask a librarian' service to give details of the notices. They may mention surviving relatives, However, NSW have now instituted a fee of AU$16.50 per image.

Valerie, another GR member & our 'go to' person for Australian records, has suggested "The 'National Library of Aus' (Canberra) covers ALL States - it MAY provide a better service".

Thank you again, his father had already died in 1920 and his mother died October 1935 so maybe he knew she was ill and came home to see her before she died. 42 Vineyard Hill was her address.

Marian Report 11 Nov 2018 20:19

Hello, I've just discovered William and Elizabeth Crawford had a son Denzil as follows:

Denzil Crawford born Dec q 1901 Wandsworth area, MMN Wheatley.

In 1911 he is at boarding school at Westgate on Sea, Kent. I can't find anything for him after 1911 ie marriage or death on FreeBMD.

Have tried Denzel, Denzle and Denzal.

I was wondering if anyone could take a look at the 1939 census please. Thank you
