Hi Angela,
I believe we could be related !
I hope we are ! I would love any information on my dads side of the family, as I just come to learn he had a sister Joan through doing a family tree.
My father’s is John Turner born Chester 1918 , he also lost he’s arm as a young boy. He die in a car accident 1971.
He does have A lot of children but none with the name Chester .
My name is Catherine Cestria Turner , I live in Sydney Australia born 1962.
I’m happy to give you any information which may help fill in the pieces.
Regards Cathy :-)

Ok Angela - seems likely just the 'place' name was on the photo.

The 'NSW Library' (Ask a Librarian' service) can trace those family names found (thanks to RYERSON's volunteer!)) - from latest/current electoral rolls. (Mission now accomplished!!?)

Hi - I have just received copy of his newspaper death notice - showing lots of family names. He died in an accident. I will send a PM with my email address to exchange contact -I can 'forward' the newspaper details directly to you.
(info KINDLY sent from a volunteer on RYERSON's INDEX)

(I shall disregard 'NSW Library' ….fee $16.50!!)

PS
I have just emailed 'NSW State Library's 'Ask a Librarian' service -to check the SMH death notice (2/11/1971)- for family names etc.

Hi
Just found sad news of John Turner's (early) death. NSW BMD shows: ……
Reg.No 70944/1971
John Turner d 31/10/1971 age 53yrs 'late of Sadlier' son of Walter & Annie Turner.

Death notice was in 'Sydney Morning Herald' 2/11/1971.

The 'NSW State Library' (on-line) has an 'Ask a Librarian' service. They will check that newspaper death notice for John Turner (SMH 31/10/1971) - it should show family names etc.

NSW/BMD has a list of 'transcription agents' who will search that Reg.No. and send you details from death cert. (approx. $25). It should show his wife/chn's names etc.
('Joy Murrin' is one of the agents) (Cheaper than buying the cert.)

Hopefully there will be mention of 'Chester' - if so - 'Ask a Librarian' to check their NSW electoral rolls -which are current -up to present day. They should at least find entries for John Turner -up to 1971 and hopefully 'Chester' plus any other names mentioned.
(with compulsory voting here -we ALL have to be on the rolls from 2yrs after arrival)

Hi
Do you know WHERE his son Chester Turner was born 'roughly1965' ? (Aus/NZ?)
He may be easier to follow up.

Thanks thats fantastic. Annie and Walter Turner were my grandparents. The address is correct, they did have a large family sadly all now passed away, My mother was Joan Turner she also had a younger sister named Bet and older brothers Charlie, George, and Walter. I know my grandfather died when the youngest Bet was very young i would be interested in his cause of death. This is all new to me so any advise is greatly appreciated. Jack could of married before leaving leaving for Australia.
