Find Ancestors

Many thanks to everyone who assisted with this research. With all the information I received I was able to find out what I needed and I also purchased the 1938 Marriage Certificate which confirmed that Iris Mary Mott was a family member.

Very much appreciated everyone.

Thanks very much for this. Pittsy

Thanks MEgirl

Did try but no luck. Also tried NSW - too many to choose from.

Pittsy

Have you tried and white pages for South Australia?

Thanks MEgirl

There was also a son named Garry William born 1939 but I have not been able to find anything on him.

Pittsy here is a notice for the daughter:

Barrier Miner (Broken Hill), Tuesday 13/10/1942. Funeral notices - The relatives and friends of Mrs. I. Ogilvie of 80 Cobalt Street are respectfully informed that the remains of her late daughter (Barbara Dawn) were peacefully laid to rest in the Roman Catholic Cemetery this (Tuesday) morning at 11.00 a.m., the Rev. Father W. Brennan officiating.

Hi Researchers

Found that Iris remarried and moved to South Australia in 1943.

at Trove
Adelaide Advertiser Fri 2 April 1943
OGILVIE - WILLIAMS
The marriage of Iris M daughter of Mr & Mrs Mott of Broken Hill to Raymond H younger son of Mr and Mrs Williams Brown St Semaphore will be solemised Lutheran church on April 10 6pm.

Should say daughter of Mr & Mrs NOTT of Broken Hill.

Can anyone help with Semaphore in SA.

There is also a tree on the web with a child Garry William born 4/9/1939 but no place of birth. This would have been Ogilvie prior to the father Stuart being killed at war.

Thanks

pat :-)

Can anyone check up Iris May Mott

Residence: 1954 - city, Riverina, New South Wales.

Thanks

Much appreciated. I think she would have been so young she would have remarried. I tried marriages in NSW but no luck. Your assistance is most appreciated.

The death is not her as we don't have a Thomas and Caatherine.

Pittsy

Cant see her on Aussie electorol rolls up to 1954..as Iris Mary OGILVIE

Of course, she may have re-married..?

Pending on wether she went under the name of Iris or Mary ( her second name )there is a death of a Mary OGILVIE in 1980 in NSW...but its a stab in the dark.

18558/1980 OGILVIE MARY Fath:THOMAS RAMSAY Moth:CATHERINE


Will keep checking for you, and if i find something more concrete i will add it here.

In the meantime, hopefully someone else may read your thread, and offer help.

Tony :-)

She would have been born in NSW I think but as they married in 1938 she could have been a long younger than him. My father said they loved with them prior to him enlisting and they were living in Broken Hill at the time I think ?

Pittsy

Checked South Australia for a birth for Iris Mary MOTT....but nothing registered for this state.

Also checked Victoria up to 1921....but found nothing.

QLD up to 1914.....nothing

As you say....can only check up to 1910 for NSW

Much appreciated. My main aim is trying to find the parents of his wife Iris Mary Mott. My elderly father has kept information on his cousin Stuart Ogilvie and I am trying to find what line of my Mott family he belongs to ? Not an easy task I am finding. I have found their marriage at NSW BDM in 1938 Broken Hill but cannot find her birth as she would have been born after the 1910 date unfortunately.

Thanks very much for the birth registration. Newspapers say Walter and Olive lost two sons in the WW2 - how terrible.
