I always thank people who help me as it is nice to have manners and I would like to be treated nicely when I help some one
I was also told her brother William born 1889 went across also after 1909 but he never had a middle name so it would be really hard to find him

Hi Val
there are 6 Janet Stewart marriages between 1900 and 1957 in NSW BDM
No Janet Davidson Stewart Marriages for the same period.
There are 2 deaths for Janet Stewart same bdm index.
We need parents names if possible and a time frame to work in Val

Hi Val

Did she come to Australia to get married?
Have you got any dates and maybe a State that she came to as each State has different access to records.

Cheers
