Find Ancestors

so ........

let me try to get something straight


Records show that James Harold married Eileen Ellen in 1944


Uncle Lenny was born in 1948, with another name shown as his father


your mother was born in 1952


it sounds almost as though there might have been an earlier break-up, then they got back together, but he then left again.



definitely a little confusing :-)

This hasn't really got anything to do with it's just a little confusing so I thought I should throw a spanner in the works, my mothers brother Lenny has a different dad on his birth certificate it's Lenny McGrath (something like that) and he was born in 1948 my mother was born in 1952.
Could somebody help figure this out please

Sorry I believe he was an alcoholic and left when eileen told him she was pregnant with my mother

Thank you for that bit of information.
Yes it does sound like him.
If anyone with the knowledge of Australian records could let me know if he had any children besides my mum.

maybe someone with better knowledge of Australian records will be able to help you.

apart from the marriage, there is nothing else showing for him on ancestry!

No idea of when he was born, where he went.

There is a James Bylos who appears on the Voters List on 4 records ............. 1949, 1954, 1958 and 1963


James Bylos Male 1949 New South Wales West Sydney Darlinghurst West

James Bylos Male 1954 New South Wales West Sydney Darlinghurst West

James Bylos Male 1958 New South Wales West Sydney Darlinghurst West

James Bylos Male 1963 New South Wales Kingsford-Smith Randwick



This MIGHT be him, especially as he is shown as living in Randwick in 1963, which is where you said he died.


From the image of the 1963 Electors and Voters List ........

James Bylos
11A Cook Street
Shoemaker



On the other 3 lists, he says "no occupation" ................ so may not be the same person

Australia Marriage Index, 1788-1950 about James Harold Bylos

Name: James Harold Bylos
Spouse Name: Eileen Ellen Oakley
Marriage Date: 1944
Marriage Place: New South Wales
Registration Place: Glebe, New South Wales
Registration Year: 1944
Registration Number: 9371



and that is the only record I can find for him


I can find Electoral and Voters Lists for Eileen Ellen Bylos for 1943, 1949, 1954, 1958, 1963 (twice), 1968, and 1980

But she seems to be living alone ......... or at least, not with a person over voting age

her occupation is always shown as Homemaker or Home Duties.


Did James Harold leave her very soon after the marriage?

Yes that's him , wow can you tell me anything else about him?

For information
