Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 4,065 Send Message	Hi again Corinne I guess it is one of these? No reg as STEPHENS so it seems they never married. Still no death so perhaps the story that he died soon after the child was born was to 'save face'? If he was unnamed on the birth, how do you know he was the child's father? Surname: JOHNSTONE Given Names: Richard Event: B Father: Mother: Elizabeth JOHNSTONE Birth Place: MELB Year: 1863 Reg Number: 21785 Surname: JOHNSTONE Given Names: Richard Stephens Event: B Father: Mother: Elizabeth JOHNSTONE Birth Place: MELB Year: 1864 Reg Number: 11133

Member Since: October 2005 Posts: 39 Send Message	Hello Cherilyn I got the dates from others doing the family but not sure where he died,since he was living in Melbourne just thought he probably died there as he was young.He must have been somewhere else. Thankyou for your help. Just thought if we could find his death certificate then may find about parents etc. Regards Corinne

Member Since: April 2007 Posts: 27 Send Message	looking for any marriage or death for a Julia Mary Phillips born 1876 in Ash-Next-Sandwich, Kent, England. I know she had a son on 9th October 1918 . The birth is registered in Woodend Melbourne. He grew up in childrens home before coming to live in England in 1933. I am led to believe that he was put there because his mother died but I have not been able to find any trace of her
