Hi Iris
Yes it does state Myras birth as 1837, but on the marriage cert 1876 it states her age as 19 I think the census is mistranscribed her age should be 24 not 44.

Hi Iris
That is the correct family they all came to australia in 1883 to Mackay queensland.
I have josephs death cert he died in liverpool new south wales in 1922 the cert says that the children are Mary George and elizabeth still living and one female deceased that would be clara, I have found info on the deaths of all except Myra and clara, so I thought that they may have returned to England. also I can't find any marriage in australia for clara. just not sure where to look next.

Regards
Gary

These are the deaths I have got from freebmds as possibles... you may be able to dismiss some on grounds of middle names ... if not... well its still quite a long list!

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page

Deaths Mar 1886 (>99%)
Morgan Clara Beatrice 6 Barton R. 6a 98

Deaths Mar 1889 (>99%)
MORGAN Clara 8 Westbury S. 6a 155

Is it just the girls you are seeking, or the parents?

The girls' deaths would be harder to trace as from about 1915 onwards the death registers aren't searchable as a database, you have to scroll the original registers.

More likely they got married?

Hi Anita
Thankyou very much, clara and her mum are a real headache, but in time I know that I will find the info I need.

Hi All
My ancestors came to Australia in 1883 I can't find a death for them so I am wondering if they may have returned to England?
they are.
Myra Morgan B abt 1859 parents John Foxhall and Mary A Matthews and
Clara Morgan B abt 1881 parents Joseph Morgan and Myra Foxhall.
any info would be a great help.

Regards
Gary
