Harriet Charlotte May Straiton | Death | 05/10/1932 | George Guy | Harriet Timms

QLD historical death index. Retrieved 2026-09-17. Registered under her married surname Straiton (she married James Smith Straiton in 1913, family #13505); refines the tree's year-only 1932 death to the exact date and confirms via her birth parents George Guy/Harriet Timms that this is the same woman as the 1885 birth above, distinct from her deceased-infant namesake #52673 (review item #5255).

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

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

For Colin John Hafemeister (1914–1914)

Name: Colin John Hafemeister | Event: Death | Date: 14/08/1914 | Reference: 1914/B/19827 | Father: - | Mother: Minnie Hafemeister weeks

Verbatim; the trailing "weeks" after the mother's name is almost certainly the age-at-death column (e.g. "N weeks") run together with the mother field in this index's transcription - consistent with an infant who died ~13 weeks after the 17 May 1914 birth. No second Colin (John) Hafemeister birth registration exists anywhere in the QLD index (checked), so this is not a reused infant name.

Queensland BDM index columns: Name | Event | Date | Registration | Father | Mother. This infant's death record names his own parents as Carl Friedrich Mittelstadt (#45346) and Charlotte Rowert (family #13641) - the discriminator proving #45346 is a different man to #45336, who married Sophia Beuschel.

Death index row; father/mother transliterated 'John Lederhose' / 'Johanella Elizabeth Schnarbus' = Johannes Lederhose and Henrietta Johannette Elizabeth Schnurbus.

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

"Frederic Christian Epple | Death | 14/03/1885 | reg 1885/C/1581 | father=John Jakob Frederic Epple | mother=Elizabeth Sophie Orthleib"

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

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1916/O/1312 · Year 1916 Primary

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

For William Frederick Hass (1879–1943)

William Frederick Hass | Birth | 19/10/1879 | Charles Hass | Wilhelmine Pioch | 1916/O/1312

Queensland historical BDM birth index row (Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference), queried via genealogy-cli qld-bdm --surname Hass --given 'William Frederick' --type births, 2026-09-17. The reference prefix 'O' is Queensland's late/delayed-registration series: the birth itself occurred 19 Oct 1879 but was not registered until 1916, which is why the tree's imported record showed '1916' as though it were the birth year, producing the mother_too_old flag (Wilhelmina Pioch b.1848 would be 68 in 1916, but is 31 in 1879, fitting neatly between her other children Maria Louise b.1877 and Wilhelmine Johanna/Frederick b.1881).

Queensland historical birth, death and marriage index Registration No 1943/C/2678 · Year 1943 Primary

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

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

For Dorothy Francis Harper

Dorothy Troyahn | Death | 10/05/1990 | John Thomas Harper | Hannah Frances Edwards | -

Her own 1990 death registration (no registration number returned by the index for this row) names her parents as John Thomas Harper and Hannah Frances Edwards, confirming Harper as her maiden surname -- the better source for her own name than her son's 1928 registration, which spells it 'Hayner'.
