You do know of Phyllis's son? Maybe you would explain your relationship to the Whitlarks so we know better what you know. ;)

WHITLARK ADA F 1874 37 Chelmsford Essex
WHITLARK MORTON 1897 14 Chelmsford Essex
WHITLARK PHYLLIS 1903 8 Chelmsford Essex


but father not in household ...

Phyllis doesn't seem to have married or died in NSW?

-- Oops, cross-posted, you've clarified.

morton ashton had one sibling phyllis lilian whitlark c. 1902 but she died at some point between 1921 and 1936 as she is the one who is deseased.

I also can't find a death for her she was travelling to Australia to see her parents when she drowned. She was married so would have been phyllis waston-wood or phyllis wood at the time of her death.

In 1924 morton applied for assistance from the Australian Military I think this is when his sister died.

For ref, this is the dad's death in NSW?

WHITLARK JOHN ASHTON
father MICHAEL MORETON
mother SARAH

The surname Whitlark doesn't appear in Australian white pages at present:

http://www.whitepages.com.au/wp/initResSearch.do

Did he have siblings?

That is the only Whitlark death in NSW. Do you know when/where his mother died?
