Up to date records are difficult to find in Oz. Victoria particularly have a '1942' rule that no marriage details are divulged after 1942. I found it very difficult as my relatives are all female so finding married names almost impossible. Death certs of the parents were useful as were White Pages. |

oh :( thank you Cathy. i got all excited- my grandfather's brother went to Australia in 1951 and stayed there the rest of his life so i thought perhaps that may have been a visit from my grandad and nan. |

I think the O/S could stand for Ordinary Seaman D Fagan aged 19. |
