Hi Leslie, You could check the 'RYERSON INDEX' (on-line) they have newspaper death notices from abt 1970 to present day. They may have death notice of son 'William E'. They will do 'look-ups' (free) for family names. ............... Also - 'JOY MURRIN's Transcription service' will 'search' NSW BMD (fees from $7). (Aus. d. certs give name & ages of all off-spring.)....................... Valerie (WA)
