Name: James Dodds | Event: Death | Date: 17/11/1885 | Reference: 1885/C/4482 | Father: William Dodds | Mother: Eliza Case

Queensland BDM death index. Confirms this person is the infant son of William Dodds & Eliza Case who died 17 Nov 1885 (matches existing DEAT date) - i.e. he cannot be the James Dodds who married Bessie Brown Stalker and fathered a daughter born 1918.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1904/C/2034 Β· Year 1904 Primary

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

For Thomas Martin Huddy (1904–1975)

Thomas Martin Huddy, Birth, 27/02/1904, father George Bourke Huddy, mother Agnes Patterson, 1904/C/2034

QLD BDM index row. Confirms Thomas Martin Huddy is son of George Bourke Huddy & Agnes Patterson β€” a different man from Thomas James Cecil Huddy #51661, son of Thomas Ethridge Huddy & Amanda Cornelia Olsen, born 1906 (review item 4309, dismissed as false positive).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1865/C/493 Β· Year 1865 Primary

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

For Florence Martha Hunt (1865–1919)

Florence Martha Hunt, Birth, 20/10/1865, father Joseph Hunt, mother Helen Bourne, 1865/C/493

QLD BDM index row. Confirms Florence Martha Hunt is daughter of Joseph (Searles) Hunt & Helen (Maria) Bourne, born Toowoomba β€” a different woman from Florence Sarah Hunt #59311, daughter of Joseph Hedding Hunt & Sarah Clark Simpson, born 1863 Balmain NSW and died there 21 Aug 1882 (review item 4310, dismissed as false positive).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1975/C/4806 Β· Year 1975 Primary

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1867/C/563 Β· Year 1867 Primary

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

For Elizabeth Mary Imhoff (1867–1950)

Elizabeth Mary Imhoff, born 21/04/1867, father Phillip Imhoff, mother Caroline Zeyher, 1867/C/563.

Same day and month as the tree, two years later. Both parents match Phillip Imhoff (#4230) and Caroline Friedericka Zeyher (#8270). Her brother Phillip Henry is registered 11/06/1865 to the same couple (1865/C/370), and a third, John David, 12/06/1863 (1863/C/245), so the 50-day sibling gap the queue flagged was her wrong birth year, not a wrong child link.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1910/C/4073 Β· Year 1910 Primary

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

For William Krause (1910–1910)

William Krause | Birth | 17/08/1910 | Fredrick Wilhelm Krause | Alvenie Hermine Kirchner | 1910/C/4073

Index row in column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Confirms the birth date already on file and names the parents (family 1804), distinguishing him from William Frank Krause #26173 (different father) and from his own younger brother Harold William Krause #10901.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1896/C/8545 Β· Year 1896 Primary

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

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

For Charles Kreis (1896–1896)

Charles Kreis | Death | 16/11/1896 | Johann Heinrich Casar Kreis | Annie Strofeld | 1896/C/3307

Index row in column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Confirms the death date already on file - an infant who lived just over 8 months.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1913/C/7348 Β· Year 1913 Primary

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

For Emelia Anna Katherina Kreis (1887–1947)

Norman William Berderow | Birth | 24/11/1913 | Wilhelm August Berderow | Amelia Anna Katherina Kreis | 1913/C/7348

Her son's birth registration, naming her as Amelia Anna Katherina Kreis β€” one of the two forms welded into the garbled name row removed by this proposal.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1912/C/6119 Β· Year 1912 Primary

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

For Emelia Anna Katherina Kreis (1887–1947)

Ester Amelia Berderow | Birth | 03/04/1912 | Wilhelm August Berderow | Amelia Annie Catherine Kneis | 1912/C/6119

Her daughter Ester Amelia's birth registration, naming her as Amelia Annie Catherine β€” the second form welded into the garbled row. The surname is registered "Kneis", a slip for Kreis, so only the given-name form is taken as the variant.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1892/C/9797 Β· Year 1892 Primary

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

For Frederick Charles Kreis (1892–1960)

Friedrich Charles Kreis | Birth | 31/08/1892 | Johannes Kreis | Auguste Wilhelmine Stumer | 1892/C/9797

His own birth registration, on the date already recorded for him, naming both parents. It spells him Friedrich rather than Frederick β€” the attested variant added here as an aka.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1887/C/7670 Β· Year 1887 Primary

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

For Henry Jacob Kreis (1887–1956)

"Henry Jacob Kreis | Birth | 06/06/1887 | reg 1887/C/7670 | father=Konrad Kreis | mother=Katharina Althaus"

Distinct from Henry Johan Kreis #4572, registered separately as 1889/C/8533, born 23/04/1889 to the same parents. Two brothers, two registrations.

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

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

For Norman Victor Kreis (1904–1974)

Norman Victor Kries | Birth | 23/09/1904 | Edward Henry Kries | Cecilia Brayshaw | 1904/C/9147

Index row in column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Confirms the birth date already on file and the parents (family 738), distinguishing him from Norman Fred Kreis #4597 (different father: Conrad Kreis). The registration spells the surname 'Kries' throughout this row, hence the companion name.create.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1974/C/5431 Β· Year 1974 Primary

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

For Norman Victor Kreis (1904–1974)

Norman Victor Kreis | Death | 07/08/1974 | Edward Henry Kreis | Cecelia Brayshaw | 1974/C/5431

Index row in column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Fills the previously bare death year (1974) with the exact date; parents match family 738 (spelled 'Kreis' on this row, unlike the birth registration).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1867/C/1491 Primary

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

For Anna Elizabeth Krueger (1867–1940)

Anna Elizabeth Kruger | Birth | 02/09/1867 | Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Kruger | Anna Elizabeth Grambauer | 1867/C/1491

Matches the tree's birth date (2 Sep 1867) and father exactly; the index gives the mother's given name as 'Anna Elizabeth' where the tree has 'Johanne Elizabeth' Grambauer - both share 'Elizabeth', left unchanged as a minor index/GEDCOM discrepancy, not a contradiction worth overwriting.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1907/C/2735 Β· Year 1907 Primary

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

For Alfred Lack (1907–1970)

Alfred Lack | Birth | 05/08/1907 | George Lack | Emilie Martha Schlierike | 1907/C/2735

Queensland historical birth index, searched 2026-08-29. Columns in the order quoted: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Reference. The father and mother named are persons #4696 and #6706, the couple of family #1873. The certificate itself was not viewed.

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

"James Henry Law | Death | 01/08/1959 | reg 1959/C/4136 | father=James Welsley | mother=Annie Cecelia Pohlman"

Father's name is garbled in this index row ("James Welsley"); mother's name and the exact death date (already on file) match, and no other James Henry Law death is registered that date - same man.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Year 1931 Β· Volume B Β· Registration No 15400 Primary

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

For James Johnston Little (1863–1931)

Little | James Johnston | Death | 30/09/1931 | 1931 | B | 15400 | Robert Little | Margaret Little

Same row cited on the person for parentage. 'Robert Little' supports the tree's father Bert Little #42015 (Bert is a diminutive of Robert); consider whether that stub should be renamed Robert. The mother is entered 'Margaret Little' β€” her married surname, not a maiden name β€” so the row neither confirms nor contradicts the tree's Margaret Johnston #42014; the deceased's own middle name Johnston is the tree's separate support for that. No change proposed to either parent.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Year 1900 Β· Volume C Β· Registration No 3285 Primary

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

For James Johnston Little (1899–1900)

Little | James Johnston | Death | 28/03/1900 | 1900 | C | 3285 | James Johnston Little | Alice Tucket

Queensland historical BDM index, one death search-result row; columns as on the birth citation. The mother's name is printed 'Alice Tucket' (one t) in the index β€” quoted as it stands; she is Alice Tuckett #7731. Contradicts the tree's uncited death date 21 MAR 1900 by seven days.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1926/B/39000 Β· Year 1926 Primary

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

For Louisa Paulina Maas (1897–1937)

Ernst Wilhelm Berderow | Marriage | 21/01/1926 | Louise Pauline Maas | 1926/B/39000

Evidence for the Louise Pauline spelling added as a variant here. The tree's primary Louisa Paulina is left alone β€” both are ordinary renderings of the same German name and neither contradicts the other.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Year 1976 Β· Volume B Β· Registration No 67061 Primary

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

For James Galbraith Metcalfe (1891–1976)

Metcalfe | James Galbraith | Death | 25/02/1976 | 1976 | B | 67061 | John Metcalfe | Deborah Metcalf

Same death index row cited on the person as evidence of parentage: father John Metcalfe (#5421), mother Deborah Metcalf (#5409). Columns as on the death-event citation.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Year 1912 Β· Volume C Β· Registration No 4206 Primary

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

For John Metcalfe (1854–1912)

Metcalfe | John | Death | 20/08/1912 | 1912 | C | 4206 | John Metcalfe | Mary Ann Wilson

Same row cited on the person for parentage: both names match the tree's parents exactly β€” father John Metcalfe #5422 and mother Mary Ann Wilson #8161. He was a Scottish immigrant who arrived in Queensland in 1910 and died there two years later, so this Queensland registration is the only civil record that names his parents.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1890/C/12773 Β· Year 1890 Primary

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

For Margaret Frances Murray (1890–1925)

Margaret Frances Murray | Birth | 12/06/1890 | 1890/C/12773 | Father: Thomas Hamilton Murray | Mother: Elizabeth Ann Doe Dugdale

Columns: Name | Event | Date | Registration No. | Father | Mother, QLD BDM index birth search (surname Murray, given Margaret, 1890-1892). Confirms parents Thomas Hamilton Murray & Elizabeth Ann Doe Dugdale already on the tree (family #1162); distinguishes #5758 from Margaret Janet Campbell Murray #5759 (review item 4390).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1892/C/10443 Β· Year 1892 Primary

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

Confirms parents John Murray & Margaret McGavin already on the tree (family #2066); distinguishes #5759 from Margaret Frances Murray #5758, flagged at review item 4390.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1963/B/60578 Β· Year 1963 Primary

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

For Marion Jean Stirling Murray (1904–1963)

Marion Jean Stirling Greenhill | Death | 25/08/1963 | Francis Hamilton Murray | Mary Ann Eliza Ryder | 1963/B/60578

Queensland historical death index; columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Registration number. Registered under her married surname; the two parents named are exactly her parents in this tree (#5734, #6613), which is what identifies her.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1924/B/85960 Β· Year 1924 Primary

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

For Eric Ivan Pacholke (b. 1924)

"Eric Ivan Pacholke | Birth | 04/06/1924 | reg 1924/B/85960 | father=Albert Alexander Pacholke | mother=Gladys Maud Mona Goodwin"

QLD historical BDM index confirms existing birth date and parents. Distinct from Eric John Pacholke #26952 (reg 1926/C/13538, father John Henry Pacholke, mother Ethel Trimingham) - different parents.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1887/C/2180 Β· Year 1887 Primary

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1888/C/2437 Β· Year 1888 Primary

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

Name: Unnamed (F) Rowland | Event: Death | Date: 26/06/1889 | Reference: 1889/C/2940 | Father: Hugh Rowland | Mother: Jane Browne

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index 1928/C/2739 Primary

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

For Emilie Schmaling (1870–1928)

Death registration: Amelia Stallman, 10/09/1928, mother Auguste Habermann, father Johann Schmaling.

Born Schmaling; a different Amelia Stallman from Amelia Brown (proposal #2732, d.1962). No marriage record identifying her Stallman husband was found; possibly related to Emilie Schmaling (William Stallman's wife, proposal #2730).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1897/C/8509 Primary

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

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1924/C/563 Β· Year 1924 Primary

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

For Wilhelm Friedrich Schmidt (1850–1924)

Wilhelm Friedrich Schmidt, Death, 01/02/1924, Christian Schmidt, -, 1924/C/563

Queensland historical index, deaths search. Columns: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother (blank in this row), Registration reference. Matches the tree's existing death date (1 FEB 1924) and gives his father's name for the first time: Christian Schmidt (mother not given in this record). Wilhelm Friedrich Schmidt #6730 married Wilhelmine Primnitz (family 2320, no QLD BDM marriage record found) and had son Wilhelm Christian Schmidt (b.1872 Prussia) -- distinct wife and child from Wilhelm Carl Schmidt #19045 (dup_person item 4410).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1914/C/10393 Β· Year 1914 Primary

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

For Caroline Smith (1915–1943)

Name: Caroline Smith | Event: Birth | Date: 30/07/1914 | Father: John Henry Tarver Smith | Mother: Mary Inch | Reference: 1914/C/10393

QLD BDM birth index. Only Caroline Smith registered to father John Henry Tarver Smith 1912-1917. Mother's name transcribed 'Inch'; almost certainly a digitisation misread of 'Lynch' (confirmed correct on the 1943 death registration below) given the exact, distinctive match on the father's full name.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1943/C/1819 Β· Year 1943 Primary

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

For Caroline Smith (1915–1943)

Name: Caroline Gunn | Event: Death | Date: 13/03/1943 | Father: John Henry Tarver Smith | Mother: Mary Lynch | Reference: 1943/C/1819

QLD BDM death index. Matches the tree's existing death date and married surname (Gunn) exactly; parents match family 1957 exactly, settling that this married/died Caroline is the daughter registered born 1914.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1907/C/4934 Β· Year 1907 Primary

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

For Christopher Staines (1907–1940)

Christopher Staines Birth 26/09/1907 Sydney Henry Staines Sophie Louisa Stoltmann 1907/C/4934

Father 'Sydney Henry Staines' is a distinctive exact match; mother spelled 'Sophie Louisa Stoltmann' on this row, almost certainly a registrar mis-spelling of Stallmann/Stallman, the spelling on all seven other children's registrations.

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1203 Β· Year 1863 Primary

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

For August Stallman (1863–1943)

Birth registration: August Stallman, 13/05/1863, mother Sophia Ahrens, father Christian Stallman.

This Christian Stallman cannot be the Christian Stallmann (b.1858) already in the tree, who would have been only 5 years old in 1863 β€” a distinct, older man, probably an elder brother of the b.1858 Christian, both apparently sons of John Stallman.
