Hi A G
Just found the family details for Sarah Jane Bates Salvona 1928 via Registrar in Scotland she kindly did a quick look-up for me.
Sarah Jane Bates Jenkinson (Salvona) 1909 was her aunt.

Thanks, GG.

There doesn't appear to be any memorial to her at Enfield Memorial Park, at least not as Jenkinson, and she's not among the various Jenkinsons for whom Ron has left flowers on Findagrave -
but maybe her memorial hasn't been put on Findagrave yet, or maybe she remarried..

Posting just because I came across it -
more about Sarah Jane 1909's brother John:


His marriage:

JH's birth:

His death (already posted by ErikaH but repeating here):

SALVONA
JOHN HENRY

It's possible that Sarah 1928 is their daughter (if not a daughter of Sarah 1909 as previously suggested) - but only her birth cert would tell you

Brown is, of course, a very common name.

However, it looks as if he's a son of Joseph Brown and Sarah Jane B Salvona (1928) who married in 1950 .

If you click on his name on the Findagrave website, you can send him a message.

He has added flowers to 1313 memorials, mainly of people who died in Australia.

It may just be coincidence, but two of those people seem to be his parents:


Joseph Lily Gillespie Brown
Birth 1927
Death 26 Jun 2006 (aged 78–79)
Burial Fremantle Cemetery
Palmyra, Melville City, Western Australia, Australia
Plot Lakes Small Bronze-Garden 2 Shrub-0032.

In loving memory of JLG (Joe) Brown.
Loved husband of Sally.
Loving father of Gary, Gordon, and Ronald.
Dear Granda of Leanne, Rachael, Dannielle and Adam.

Last residence: Pinjarra, WA.


Sarah Jane Brown
Birth 1928 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Death 25 May 1994 (aged 65–66)
Burial
Fremantle Cemetery
Palmyra, Melville City, Western Australia, Australia
Plot Lakes Small Bronze-Garden 2 Shrub-0032

In loving memory of Sarah (Sally) Brown.
Loved wife of Joseph.
Loving mother of Gary, Gordon and Ronald.
Dear Nanna of Leanne, Rachael, Dannielle and Adam.

Last residence: Pinjarra, WA.



Joseph's birth:

BROWN
JOSEPH LILY GIL. . . . . . .
M
1927
685/11 86

Sarah, Joseph, and Ronald are together at an address in Pinjarra on ER for 1977
- and probably other years which I haven't investigated.

Hi Everyone, It been a really busy day for all of us what an amazing group this is.

I wonder what the family connection is for Ron Brown?
He has been leaving flowers on several graves records

Very kind and considerate gesture indeed.

I have not come across the name before today.

Ian

That makes sense about the later marriage - there is the extra initial which I overlooked

South Australia appears not to have records as up to date as other States online.

No ER's available, but it would appear he was married looking at the death record.

The State library of South Australia is contactable - says by phone or a Live chat at the click of a button - the Ask a Librarian Service. (I recently obtained a death cert. through their Victoria equivalent for a fee).

https://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/ask-us

They may be able to look at ERs for you which may throw up names of anyone at the same address.

She and William Jenkinson married 1929, as already posted.

Possibly a child born before marriage ???

SALVONA

The 1950 marriage to Joseph Brown could be that child's marriage, rather than a remarriage for Sarah 1909.

Have you tried looking on SP? I gave you the link.

He could, of course, have married anywhere................................

Getting his death cert is your best bet. Some info simply isn't avaialble without cost
