Thanks Maddie, I have contacted the people you mentioned in Ancestry and offer them a scan of the photo and the details on the back, could not have done it without you!

Di .. the 'RYERSON INDEX' (on-line) shows Gilbert Pugh Davies d 21/9/1952 at Canterbury (VIC) -his death notice in 'The Age (Melb)' 22/9/1952.

The 'Victorian State Library' (on-line) has an 'Ask Us' librarian service - they will check this newspaper death notice for family names etc. They will also check electoral rolls (past & present) for any family names mentioned.

For interest, both of their cremations are recorded on https://sbc.smct.org.au/deceasedsearch/

You could repeat the search with other potential family names - if it says that their cremated remains have been collected, you could email the crematorium. Although they wouldn't give you an address, they'd probably tell you the name of the person who collected the Ashes. V handy if the only know descendents were female who may have married
