hi Gins

Their children were Alice Marie, Charles Alan, Norman and Harold who wrote all born in Sydney. I believe Alice was born in Kogarah and from a funeral notice I found she was 84 when she died putting her birth year at 1869. I believe Alice Marie was born in 1908 which would have made Alice 39 .... A dangerous age in those times for first child?

I am unable to find ANY info about her parents at all in Trove, NSW BDM etc and hoped any super sleuths could find another avenue.



Hi Alemap
I found the trove ref about wedding, thank you. I wonder why they married in Melbourne?
The immigration may be Charles although any info I have never has him as a Jensen or Christian, always christen! but that could be a transcribers error..


Hi Alviegal

Thank you for that piece if information. Obviously not Alice Duff Warrington, but could as you say, be her mother.


I appreciate every post from anyone. Many thanks. I am at a particularly graffiti- less brick wall!

Possible NSW death of Alice?
19829/1953 CHRISTENSEN ALICE / WILLIAM / ALICE / CHATSWOOD

Christen's death reg, based on Ryserson info found:
3887/1943 CHRISTENSEN CHRISTEN / CHRISTEN / NETA MARIE / MOSMAN

Here's the death notices from NLA Trove:

The Sydney Morning Herald, Monday 20 July 1953
CHRISTENSEN, Alice.—July 18, 1953, at a private hospital, Mosman, late of McMahon's Point, loved mother of Marie, Allen, Norman, and Harold, aged 84 years.

CHRISTENSEN. February 13, 1943, at a private hospital, Mosman, Charles Christen, beloved husbend of Alice Christensen of McMahon's Print and father of Marie, Alan, Norman and Harold. Privately cremated.

Fits with these chn's births in NSW, assuming Alice Marie and Charles Allen were known by 2nd given names - shows father was known as Charles:

31388/1906 CHRISTENSEN ALICE M / CHARLES C / ALICE / SYDNEY
682/1908 CHRISTENSEN CHARLES A / CHARLES C / ALICE/ SYDNEY
