Looking for Jack Anderson and Hazel Phyllis Day's family. Jack's, parents Frederick Reginald and mother Olive. Born 1913, Western Australia. Married Hazel Phyllis Day. Two daughters, one deceased, the other possibly living.
Just found out about Jack, and Hazel co-incidentally is related to a friend of mine. Jack's a cousin.
Hope someone can come up with something.
Cheers from Australia

Hi

Here's his father's enlistment:

Anderson Frederick Reginald : SERN 3466 : POB Fawcett VIC : POE Perth WA : NOK W Anderson Olive Louisa Maud

Fredk was an engine driver and they lived in Fremantle. I can't find their marriage in Vic or WA. Olive's maiden name was DANIELS. Jack had a sister named Janie Olive born 1905.

Here is Jack's enlistment:

ANDERSON JACK : Service Number - VX71824 : Date of birth - 08 Sep 1913 : Place of birth - FREMANTLE WA : Place of enlistment - CAULFIELD VIC : Next of Kin - ANDERSON HAZEL

He & Hazel married in Victoria in 1937 (reg 4887). So he may still be in Victoria. Sadly, Hazel died in 1980 in Victoria aged 65 (dau of Wm DAY). The daughter named Jennifer Susan died aged only 32 in Vic in 1983 (as ANDERSON).

Hopefully this extra info will trigger someone's memory!

Hope you find him!

Cheers
Cherilyn

HI Cherilyn
Jack died in 1989 and was cremated at Springvale (away from Hazel). The reason you can't find Olive and Fred Reg's marriage is because Olive didn't marry under Daniels.
I now have further information regarding his other daughter, who went on to have a daughter and a son of her own. I went to Springvale today to track Jack down.
Are you related to the Andersons or the Days?
Thank you for your reply.
Cheers from Australia.
