Chris, the 1866 death on FMP is exactly the same one as you posted.

Hi Chris and other researchers.
The George PAIN who is subject to my research was born 1823 and died 1866.
Sorry for delay in replying but the computer crashed - been at repairers for 4 days.
I noticed when I re-read this e-mail that Catherine PAIN's death is shown as 1890.
When George died she remarried Neil McCORRISTON and her death is registered under that name.

Hello Robert, pleased you're up and running again.

The info that was posted about Catherine's death seems to have been taken from a tree on Ancestry that is unsourced and undocumented (what sources they do have seems to be from other members trees).

The 1871 marriage isn't shown on the tree but the record does check out. This is most likely the correct death:

Australia Death Index, 1787-1985
Name: Catherine McCarriston
Death Place: Brunswick, Victoria
Age: 47
Father's Name: U
Registration Year: 1888
Registration Place: Victoria
Registration Number: 8658
Estimated birth year: abt 1841

Perhaps her remarriage wasn't the happiest?
