Would there be any documents which would shed any light on whether they had any children ?

Hi Martin,

I have looked for children on the rolls and strangely Elvia is on the 1963 roll and doesn't appear again until the 1980 rolls. Though in both those years she is at the same address as the 1963 roll that I send you.

I have tried searching Australia wide and nothing. Unless she left the country for a period of time.

Maybe another member who is far more experienced than me might have more luck.
