Evan Chellingworth Β· Death Β· 27/03/1953 Β· 1953/C/2008 Β· Frank Robert Β· Annie Johnston
QLD BDM death index row (fields: Name, Event, Date, Reference, Father, Mother). Death year matches this already-existing, previously-disconnected person's pre-existing tree deathDate (1953) exactly; father 'Frank Robert' matches Frank Robert Chellingworth, already recorded as this person's father via family #17371. The mother's name on this record, Annie Johnston, differs from the tree's recorded mother (Margaret Clayworth) β flagged in the batch note, not resolved here.
Name: Marion Catherine Bell Jodsell | Event: Birth | Date: 24/07/1889 | Reference: 1889/C/2482 | Father: Charles Edward Jodsell | Mother: Marion Halson Earl
QLD BDM birth index row (columns: name, event, date, reference, father, mother); surname mis-transcribed 'Jodsell' in this row.
Name: Marion Catherine Bell Jodrell | Event: Death | Date: 25/11/1890 | Reference: 1891/C/4255 | Father: Charles Edward Jodrell | Mother: Marion Halsow Earl
QLD BDM death index row; registered 1891 for a Nov 1890 death (year-end registration lag). Died an infant, aged about 16 months.
Name: Charles Neville Earl Jodrell | Event: Death | Date: 31/08/1972 | Reference: 1972/B/35329 | Father: Charles Edward Jodrell | Mother: Marion Halson Earl
Name: Marion Suralba Earl Joddrell | Event: Birth | Date: 17/06/1892 | Reference: 1892/C/2711 | Father: Charles Edward Joddrell | Mother: Marion Halson Earl
QLD BDM birth index row; the only Jodrell/Jodred/Joddrell birth registration matching this family after the deaths of her siblings Marion Catherine Bell (1890) and Philip Suralba/Turalba (1891) β the identification for #57710 (m. Allan Ferguson Nicholson 1935, d. 1952).
Queensland historical BDM index row (columns: Name | Event | Date | Registration | Father | Mother). A birth to a John Bambling was registered the same day with the adjacent number 1891/C/5282, same parents - likely a twin, not part of this proposal. William Henry died in infancy (next citation); the name was reused for a son born the following year (#57748).
"William Henry Bambling | Death | 30/06/1891 | reg 1891/C/1829 | father=Thomas Bambling | mother=Matilda Williams"
Same index. Died about 4 months old; the tree had no death event for this person before this proposal. Distinct from #57748, born 3 Feb 1892 to the same parents (next citation).
Thomas Patrick Walsh | Death | 02/11/1937 | Callaghan | Hannah Barry | 1937/C/4092
Queensland historical BDM index row; refines the death date from year-only. Distinctly named 'Thomas Patrick' (vs brother 'Thomas Callaghan', birth reg 1876/C/1893) on his own official registration, same parents - confirms two separate sons, reviewed together as item 5502.
Margaret Edey Wallace Byrne | Birth | 02/02/1917 | Terence Martin Byrne | Margaret Louisa Grant Downie | 1917/B/47018
Queensland historical BDM birth index row, quoted in the index's own column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. The birth date matches the tree's recorded 2 FEB 1917 exactly, which is the discriminator that identifies this stub.
William Henry Anning | Marriage | 09/05/1945 | Margaret Edey Wallace Byrne | 1945/B/1671
Queensland historical BDM marriage index row, quoted in the index's own column order: Name | Event | Date | Spouse | Reference. Ties the woman born 02/02/1917 to the tree's William Henry Anning.
William Henry Anning | Death | 21/09/1887 | Charles Cumming Stone Anning | Cleopatra Mary Ann Tucket Cox | 1887/C/1641
QLD BDM death index row; matches the tree's existing exact death date. A separate registration number and year from #59482's death, proving the two Williams are distinct sons of the same parents, not one person recorded twice.
Ferdinand Brandenberg | Death | 16/02/1912 | 1912/B/15392 | William Brandenberg | Christina Bottcher
Queensland historical BDM death index row; columns Name | Event | Date | Reference | Father | Mother. 'Brandenberg' is an attested spelling variant of Brandenburg; father 'William' = Wilhelm, matching the tree's father Gottfried Friederich Wilhelm Brandenburg (family 18220), and mother 'Christina Bottcher' matches the tree's mother Hanna Christine Bottcher -- the same rare surname pairing that also names the parents on two of this man's own children's death registrations (Ferdinand Carl Brandenburg d.1885, ref 1885/B/17697, and Ferdinand Johann Brandenburg d.1955, ref 1955/C/861 -- both recording father 'Ferdinand Wilhelm[/Ferindand]' and mother 'Henrietta/Henriette Marie Asmussen', i.e. THIS man and his wife).
Anna Christina Benstead, death 30/10/1957, father Andrew Jocumsen, mother Ingeborg Sondergoind. Queensland death registration 1957/C/4932.
Death registration names both parents: Andrew (Andreas) Jocumsen and Ingeborg Sondergaard, NOT Mads Peter Jocumsen and Isabella English. This is the basis for moving her from family 18240 to family 18246.
Anna Christina Jochamsen, born 09/01/1873, father Andreas Jochamsen, mother Ingeborg Sondergoind, 1873/C/2005. A second registration, Anna Christina Jochamsen born 09/06/1874 to Andreas Jochamsen and Ingeborg Sondergond, 1874/C/2448.
Two Queensland birth registrations of Anna Christina to the same parents (1873 and 1874) and no infant death for either in the index, so the birth year is given as BET 1873 AND 1874 rather than picking one. Either way she cannot be the Annie Jocumsen born 25/09/1910 to Peter Jocumsen and Isabella English (1910/C/5037), which is where the tree's 1910 birth year came from.
David Benstead, Death, 27/06/1917. Reference 1917/C/1670. Father: Samuel Benstead. Mother: Annie Jocumsen.
Queensland death index. Same parents as the birth registration: this David Benstead died the day after he was born, so he cannot be the David Benstead holding the husband slot in family 18238 with Amy Symons. No other David Benstead birth is registered in Queensland (checked --given David across the whole surname), so the real husband's identity is unresolved; husbandId is cleared rather than guessed.
1883/C/3596: Hansina Jocumsen, died 07/05/1883, father Hans Henningsen. 1922/B/37690: death of Karl Christian Julius Jocumsen, mother given as Hansine Hannsen. 1949/B/20509: Hansine Jocumsen, died 29/01/1949, father Soren Petersen, mother Anna Johanna Rasmussen.
Three index rows bearing on this person, recorded together because they do not agree. 1883/C/3596 is most likely her mother-in-law and is the probable source of the impossible 1883 death this record carried: her husband's own death registration names his mother Hansine. 1949/B/20509 is the only other Hansine Jocumsen death indexed 1880-1996 and has been proposed as hers, but its parents match neither the tree's Hans Sorensen nor the 'Hansine (Hansen)' on her daughter Olivia's headstone. Quality 1 deliberately: this citation records the state of the evidence, not a conclusion. No date is asserted from it.
Erick Norman Jocumsen, born 27/03/1900, father Karl Kristian Julius Jocumsen, mother Hausine Sorensen, 1900/C/8896.
Hansiene Sorensen is named as the mother on a Queensland birth registration of 27 March 1900, so she cannot have died in 1883. Death date replaced with AFT 27 MAR 1900; her actual death is not established.
Carl Hans Jocumsen | Birth | 06/03/1913 | Soren Christian Jocumsen | Bridget Cooney | 1913/C/5182
Queensland historical birth index, columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Names both parents of Carl Hans Jocumsen #59687; they are family 18250, married 1910, so a birth in 1913 fits.
Carl Hans Jocumsen | Death | 17/01/1917 | Soren Christian Jocumsen | Bridget Cooney | 1917/C/441
Queensland historical death index, same columns. Independent of the birth registration and agreeing with it; the year matches this person's tree death year 1917. He died at not quite four years old.
Bridget Ryder | Death | 13/01/1945 | Michael Nagle | Catherine O'Donohue | 1945/C/965
Queensland historical death index row, quoted in the index's own column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Retrieved 2026-08-29. Registered under her married surname Ryder; the date matches the death date already on her record.
Wilfred Charles Springall, Birth, 09/02/1898, Wilfred George Springall, Emma Gostlin, 1898/B/61731
Queensland historical index, births search. Columns: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Registration reference. His sister Eva Springall (b. 10/08/1899, 1899/B/64594) is registered to the same father with the mother given as Emma Gibson Gostelow.
John Boland Birth 05/08/1867 Edward Boland Christina Riordan 1879/O/406
QLD BDM birth index row. Columns: Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. "O" reference series = Late Registration (registered 1879 for a birth in 1867). The only birth registration in the index for a son John of Edward Boland and Christina Riordan.
John Riordon Boland Death 04/03/1956 Edward Boland Christina Boland 1956/C/597
QLD BDM death index row. Mother given under her married surname "Christina Boland" rather than maiden "Riordan" β same parents as the 1867 birth registration above, aged about 88 at death.
Name: Johanna Elizabeth Norton | Event: Birth | Date: 28/02/1902 | Reference: 1902/C/41 | Mother: Johanna Elizabeth Norton
Fuzzy name-tier match, but the date is identical to this child's own recorded death date (28 FEB 1902) and the mother's name is an exact match - consistent with an infant born and dying the same day. Fills the previously-null birth date. No BIRT event existed yet, so cited on the person. Father not printed (see general note on birth-index rows).
Carl Wilhem Grauf | Birth | 02/03/1877 | 1877/C/1832 | Carl Johann Grauf | Elizabeth Balzer
Queensland BDM birth index row; columns Name | Event | Date | Reference | Father | Mother. Father 'Carl Johann Grauf' = the patriarch Johann Karl Grauf recorded under his own given names inverted (also seen on siblings' rows); mother 'Elizabeth Balzer' = Elizabeth Bolzer already in the tree.
Susan McFarlane | Death | 28/03/1923 | reg 1923/C/2042 | father=Peter Williamson | mother=Susan Angus
Queensland historical BDM index, deaths search. Parents are Peter Williamson and Susan Angus (not William McFarlane/Susan Williamson), i.e. these are the deceased's OWN birth parents recorded at her death under her married surname - matching the given names of her son Peter Williamson McFarlane #62344. NB: daughter Susan McFarlane #62346 (b. 8 Aug 1884) already carries an uncited death date of 28 MAR 1923 in the tree, identical to this record; since this record's parents do not match #62346's own parents, this death almost certainly belongs to the mother and appears to have been misattributed to the daughter during GEDCOM import (both being 'Susan McFarlane'). Left #62346 untouched pending a dedicated look.
Ellen Cornford, Death, 09/03/1884, father William Cornford, mother Ellen Maloney, 1884/C/2626
This row's only real event. Its birth date of 9 Mar 1884 is an import artifact - the death date copied into the birth field; no birth was registered on that day. The infant daughter of William Cornford and Ellen Maloney.
Edith Juffs Death 22/07/1928 - Louisa Burt 1928/B/5195
QLD BDM death registration for her daughter, registered under the married surname Juffs (matching the tree's derived married name). Father column is "-". Mother named exactly as "Louisa Burt", matching the tree.
George Nunn | Birth | 30/10/1860 | David Nunn | Rachel Nunn | 1860/C/601
Queensland historical birth index, searched 2026-08-29. Columns in the order quoted: Name, Event, Date, Father, Mother, Reference. Birth date matches person #62955 to the day. The certificate itself was not viewed.
Wilhelmine Henriette Lukritz | Death | 28/12/1907 | 1908/C/1548
Her own birth parents: Carl Melchior Potter and Louisa Mannofki β explains why children's records list her mother's surname informally as 'Melchior'.
Hornburg | Martha Anna | Death | 18/02/1881 | Christian Friedrich Hornburg | Caroline Wruck | 1881/C/1235
Not previously recorded in the tree. Martha Anna died aged 11 days. Confirms she is a distinct sibling from Martha Maria (d. 1 Aug 1880), not the same person.
August Friedrich Wilhelm Behm | Death | 19/10/1895 | August Behm | - Behm | 1895/C/3028
Queensland historical death index row, column order: Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Registration number. Names his father as August Behm (previously absent from the tree, added here) and his mother under surname Behm with no given name indexed -- consistent with this person's mother Anna Sophia Behm #63398. Death date and this registration are newly established; the death-index rows returned by this tool carry no district/place column for Queensland. Corroborated by 4 separate Queensland birth registrations 1885-1895 (1885/C/6698, 1887/C/7690, 1890/C/10049, 1895/C/9218) naming father 'August Behm' and mother 'Bertha Strassburg' (spelled variously Strapburg/Stassburg in the index) -- matching this family's wife Emilie Bertha Friederike Strassburg #63397 by her call-name Bertha and her distinctive surname.
William James Ferris | Birth | 23/10/1887 | Eugene Ferris | Elizabeth Kirby | 1887/C/740
QLD historical BDM birth-index row, columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Parents match the tree's recorded parents (family #19650); date matches the tree's recorded birth date exactly.
