Oh, right, in that case I'd get the transcription if I were you, because they can be very informative.

In the meantime I've made a bit of progress.

I've found a marriage [names of possibly living relatives deleted]

Just looking for the other two children.

I've just seen your last message where you say you already have the death certificate, so there's no point in contacting a transcription agent, because they can only give you the same information that was on the death certificate.

Who was the informant? E? Were any children of Raymond's named?

That cemindex site should work just by copying and pasting the address into your browser.

If it doesn't, go to http://cemindex.arkangles.com

then click on Name Search and search for Rylah. Then click on the camera icon on the right-hand side of the page to see the photo.

If you put Raymond's name into the search box at the top of this page (where it says Quick Search) you'll find the other people who have him in their trees.

To find a transcription agent, go to this page.

http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/howToSearch.htm#TranscriptionAgent

which has a list of three agents. I generally use Marilyn Rowan. Click on the link to her website (or one of the others), and you can order the transcription online.

I've just had a look for P's birth in England in the first quarter of 1958, but there's no entry with the surname Rylah or N, so presumably E was married to somebody else before she met Raymond.

MaryfromItaly Report 11 Feb 2008 15:56

I found the following death entry on Ancestry:

Evelyn Joyce Rylah, born 18 Aug 1924 , died Apr quarter 2001 aged 76 in Dewsbury Yorkshire.

However, the date of birth doesn't match the one given with the emigration details for Raymond and Evelyn.

The birth of the one who emigrated with Raymond is presumably this one:

[name of possibly living relative deleted]

And the birth of the one who died in 2001 is presumably this one:

Evelyn J Rylah, born Dewsbury, 3rd quarter of 1924, mmn Leight.

I see there are 4 people on this site with Raymond in their tree, including you - have you contacted the others?

MaryfromItaly

You can search NSW births, marriages and deaths here:

http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/Index/IndexingOrder.cgi/search?event=births

Raymond John Rylah's death is listed in 1965.

It's probably worth your while getting his death cert., because Australian ones are very good. You'll get the date, place and cause of death and place of burial, how long he'd been in Australia, and the names of his wives and living children (assuming the informant was aware of them).

You can order the cert directly through the Registry at the above address, but it's much cheaper to get it from an authorised transcription agent:

Hi - 'Yes' looks like his family all went together. Check the 'National Australian Archives' -n-line - you'll see the full names and dob for the chn. ......... The RYERSON INDEX - on-line has NSW death notices (from newspapers )- from about 1977 -to present day - they do 'look-ups' for family names etc -you MAY find news of Evelyn. ...Valerie (WA)

This is the full entry:

RYLAH Raymond John born 24 October 1924... [names of possibly living relatives deleted]; travelled per ORONSAY departing UK on 31 January 1962 under the Assisted Passage Migration Scheme

http://www.naa.gov.au/collection/recordsearch.aspx

It means that they all travelled together on a ship called the Oronsay which left the UK on 31/1/62.
