Corbetts and Wilberforces
I have two problem families.
A Mary Corbett who married a Leslie George Wilberforce in 1917, although the wedding was listed in Vic BDM index online as being in Victoria.Leslie George however spent time in Nundle and appears on the death certificate of his father Willard Ashdown Wilberforce who is buried in Nundle cemetery, as the informant.Willard died in 1914.
I searched NSW BDM index and found a Mary Corbett who was born in Nundle in 1898, daughter of Michael and Francis.In the same time period, there were two other children listed, Evelyn M 1900 Nundle and Victor C 1902 Nundle.
Leslie and Mary had three children for whom I have birth dates but no places, or any other information.They were:
Raymond Leslie, born 2 July 1917
Erwin Willard, born 18 Nov 1918
Margery Beryl, born 31 March 1921
Is anybody researching either the Wilberforce family in the area or the Corbett family?Would love some assistance re this group.
My second problem family is again a Wilberforce.
I have a Walter Matheson Wilberforce, born in Coolgardie WA in 1897.While searching NSW BDM index online for the family above, I found a marriage of a Walter M Wilberforce to a Mary C Murphy in West Maitland in 1922.
Does anybody have any interest in this group of people.
Thanking you in anticipation
Carol Dale
