Find Ancestors

Hi Ginny
I am doing it for myself as it is on my father's side of the family but I have only small pieces of information. You can find out information on Australia Red Cross Society Wounded and Missing Enquiry Bureau Files. I found some good information pages on Phillip Wilkins on the War Record.
Well done
Best Wishes

Joyce,

Due to privacy laws in Victoria, births are only available to 1920, marriages to 1942 and deaths to 1985. Laws are different in each Australian State.

I don't know if Ruth Wilkins was alive or not. I did't know about Calvin and Austin Wilkins was in WW2. You have gave me some answers thanks. I have a Dianne Rosalee Sporton born 25-4-1954 Married on 23-5-1981 Graham Wiliam Loutit born 28-5-1947. Thay had a son Garry Philip Sporton born 28-2-1956. Can you find out if thay (Garry Married ) or have children.
Best wishes
Joyce
