I have not been able to locate the father but the Australian Electoral Roll for 1943 shows an Ivy Sarah Ann Wheatley living at 29 McDougall St. in the suburb of Kensington, Watson. No husband or other residents are shown but this is during the war years and it's possible he was on military service.

Michael

The 1937 Australian Electoral Roll shows Ivy Sarah Ann Wheatley living with Raymond George Wheatley (labourer), at 67 Walker Street, Waterloo. Ivy is living on her own in the 1949 electoral roll so there is a possibility her husband had died, possibly in the war.

Michael

that sounds promising, he was killed in the war, thanks

Hi Yetty, according to Kevin Arthur (dasher) Wheatley's bio.
both his parents...Raymond George Wheatley and mother Ivy Sarah Ann
(nee Newman) were born in Sydney.


kind regards, Lorraine in sunny Mackay Qld.

Have send a pm

Yetty,

Raymond George did NOT die during the war, and he is with Ivy in 1949 & 1954

Maybe this is not your family if Kevin's father was surpose to have died during WW2. ????
