Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1931/C/1731 · Year 1931 Primary

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index · Queensland Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages

For “Died” 29 MAR 1931 of Caleb Houghton

Caleb Houghton Death 29/03/1931 - Houghton - 1931/C/1731

Columns Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. Father column reads '- Houghton': a surname is recorded, no given name -- confirms a father WAS registered without identifying him. Mother column is blank ('-'); the index does not corroborate the tree's mother, Emily Hampton. Age at death (91) is consistent with birth Sep 1840 in Droxford, Hampshire, England. Droxford is not in FreeREG's transcribed coverage for Hampshire (checked via freereg-coverage), so no parish baptism record is available to test the tree's parentage further.

Found under her married surname Epple (m. Johan Jacob Friedrich Epple, fam 13882) - the birth-surname cache could not see this. Matches tree's recorded death year exactly; fills day/month.

Mother blank - the mother in fam 13886 (tree #46181, recorded only as 'Elizabeth') remains otherwise unidentified from this record.
