Free official index. Death rows name BOTH parents, which is what makes it the key to an emigrant's parentage in the country they left. Certificates are purchased separately and were not viewed.
QLD BDM historical birth index, columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Parents match the tree's Thomas McCall Murray x Esther Rodgers (family #2178) exactly (given names; 'Rogers' for 'Rodgers'). Registered in 1890 despite a Nov 1889 birth - normal year-end lag.
Name: Bertha Victoria Stullmann | Event: Death | Date: 14/05/1901 | Father: John Nibbling | Mother: Dorothea Togler | Reference: 1901/C/3478
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 14 MAY 1901 death date exactly (married surname variant Stullmann=Stallmann). CONTRADICTS the tree's father link: this row names the father 'John' Nibbling, but the tree links #5840 to father #9120 recorded as 'Joseph' Niebling. An austcemindex.com headstone (cited on the new BURI event below) independently agrees with 'John'. A third source — sister Maria Elizabeth Niebling's (#9122) 1937 headstone, not cited in this proposal — instead says 'Joseph', agreeing with the tree. Two sources vs one on the father's given name: NOT resolved here, #9120's name is deliberately left unchanged pending a human decision.

Thomas William Paterson Death 22/07/1946 - Jean Paterson 1946/C/4374
QLD BDM historical death index. Columns quoted are Name / Event / Date / Father / Mother / Reference. Father column reads "-" (none registered); mother "Jean Paterson" matches the tree's recorded mother exactly, confirming identity. NB: this batch's pre-screened cache had matched this child to a different record ("William Walter Paterson", d.12/02/1946, ref 1946/C/674, father Samuel, mother Rebecca Hedges) - a different given-name order and a different date, i.e. an unrelated man. A fresh exact-name search surfaced this correct record instead; the cached row is refuted and not used.

James John Thomas Reardon | Birth | 28/01/1912 | James Reardon | Mary Elizabeth Baker | 1912/C/14061
QLD historical BDM index birth row; exact date match to the tree's existing BIRT event, mother 'Mary Elizabeth Baker' matches family 560 exactly. Father given as plain 'James Reardon' on this row (vs 'James Thomas Ross Reardon' elsewhere) — a common birth-registration abbreviation, not a different man.
James John Thomas Reardon | Death | 28/11/1971 | James John Thomas Ross Reardon | Mary Elizabeth Baker | 1971/C/7664
CONTRADICTS the tree's recorded death date of 30 NOV 1971 — this register row reads 28 NOV 1971. Full name + both parents match family 560 exactly. Father's name on this row duplicates the deceased's own given names ('James John Thomas Ross Reardon') rather than 'James Thomas Ross Reardon' as on his 1912 birth row and his brother William Hume's 1982 death row — an index transcription artefact, not a different father. Deliberately NOT applying a person.update; flagging for a moderator, corroborated below.
Stanley Robert Reardon | Death | 17/07/1971 | James John Thomas Reardon | Robina Jane Caddies | 1971/C/5697
CONTRADICTS the tree's recorded death date of 21 AUG 1971 — this register row reads 17 JUL 1971. Unique full-name + both parents match family 869 exactly. Deliberately NOT applying a person.update; flagging for a moderator, corroborated below.

Extracted by the local model; the quote is verbatim from the fetched text. Supports the death date the tree already holds (19 APR 1962). Cited on the tree's DEAT event #13020 (19 APR 1962).

QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 10 SEP 1928 death date. Maiden surname Schmaling and both parent names match #8974/#8975, already linked in the tree to #6716 but previously uncited. Given name registered as 'Amelia' rather than 'Emilie' — added as a name.create aka row rather than left only in prose.

QLD BDM historical index, births search. Columns in order: Name | Event | Date | Reference | Father | Mother. Matches the tree's existing exact birth date and both parents.
Arthur George Springall | Birth | 17/01/1906 | 1906/C/1436 | Wilfred George Springall | Emily Gibson Gostellow
QLD BDM historical index, births search. Columns: Name | Event | Date | Reference | Father | Mother. Tree held only the birth YEAR; this supplies the exact date and matches both parents (mother's surname spelled Gostellow on the register vs Gostelow in the tree — same person, minor spelling variant).
Arthur George Springall | BIRT | 17/01/1906 | 1906/C/1436 | Wilfred George Springall | Emily Gibson Gostellow | surname: Springall | id: B2298153 | refid: 532b04efe17a757c15b591eaf5fbabce473b539ed42c44c4a9c896f76072a3d4 | detailsUrl: https://www.familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au/details/532b04efe17a757c15b591eaf5fbabce473b539ed42c44c4a9c896f76072a3d4
Queensland BDM historical index (qld-bdm), BIRT search. Reading: birth date 17 JAN 1906. Identity: exact_date (record "17/01/1906" ↔ tree "17 JAN 1906"). Extracted by the local model; the quote is verbatim from the fetched text. Supports the birth date the tree already holds (17 JAN 1906). Cited on the tree's BIRT event #14455 (17 JAN 1906).
August Stallman | Death | 25/05/1943 | Christian | Sophia Ahrens | 1943/B/61257
QLD BDM historical index row, columns Name|Event|Date|Father|Mother|Reference. Father/mother match #7389/#1328 exactly. Person had zero citations of any kind before this.
Name: Augusta Stallman | Event: Birth | Date: 18/07/1890 | Father: William Stallman | Mother: Emilie Schmaling | Reference: 1890/C/3060
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 18 JUL 1890 birth date, parents match family 2375. Upgrades the two existing thin Ancestry compiled-tree citations on this person with a primary registration record.
Augusta Lack | Death | 31/05/1944 | Wilhelm Stallmann | Emielie Schmaling | 1944/C/1971
QLD BDM historical index death row, columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference (fetched 2026-09-17 via genealogy-cli qld-bdm). Parents match family 2375 (Wilhelm Stallmann x Emilie Schmaling) and she married Albert Edwin Lack in 1910 (1910/C/1333, 'Albert Edwin Lack | Marriage | 12/01/1910 | Augusta Stallmann'). The 1954/B/1336 'Augusta Stallman' death with the same parents is her unmarried sister Annie Augusta #7359, not her.
Christian Stallmann | Death | 28/07/1970 | Christian Stallmann | Bertha Victoria Nieteling | 1970/C/4712
QLD BDM index death row, columns Name | Event | Date | Father | Mother | Reference. Parents = family 2206 (Christian Stallmann x Bertha Victoria Niebling). Replaces the uncited GEDCOM 30 JUL 1970. Find a Grave memorial 191695694 (Fernvale General Cemetery) carries 30 Jul 1970, which is probably the burial date and the likely origin of the old value.
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 19 SEP 1891 birth date, parents match family 2375. Upgrades the existing thin Ancestry compiled-tree citation on this person.
Name: Sophia Louisa Stallman | Event: Birth | Date: 04/06/1884 | Father: Christian Stallman | Mother: Bertha Victoria Frederick | Reference: 1884/C/1935
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 4 JUN 1884 birth date and father Christian Stallman (family 2206). Mother's surname is rendered 'Frederick' rather than 'Niebling' — the identical anomalous rendering recurs on this person's own 1955 death registration (see the DEAT citation on this same person), so it reads as an attested index spelling rather than a one-off error; the tree's mother link (Bertha Victoria Niebling, #5840) is unchanged.
Name: Sophia Louisa Staines | Event: Death | Date: 03/09/1955 | Father: Christian Stallman | Mother: Bertha Victoria Frederick | Reference: 1955/B/9654
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 3 SEP 1955 death date, married surname Staines (spouse Sydney Henry Staines, family 2434) and father Christian Stallman. Mother again rendered 'Frederick' for 'Niebling', matching the BIRT citation. This row carries no place field, so no death place is set from it despite the person currently holding none.
Sophia Louisa Staines Death 03/09/1955 Christian Stallman Bertha Victoria Frederick 1955/B/9654
Father 'Christian Stallman' exact-matches tree #7369 Christian Stallmann; mother's given names 'Bertha Victoria' match tree #5840 Bertha Victoria Niebling but this row's surname 'Frederick' conflicts with the tree's 'Niebling' — reported, not resolved here (out of this proposal's scope).
Name: Augusta Stallman | Event: Death | Date: 06/04/1954 | Father: William | Mother: Emilie Schmaling | Reference: 1954/B/1336
QLD BDM index row; corroborates the 6 APR 1954 death date, father William + mother Emilie Schmaling uniquely match family 2375. Given name registered as 'Augusta' rather than the tree's primary 'Annie Augusta'. A Find a Grave record (findagrave.com/memorial/135051625, cemetery Lutwyche/Kedron) independently gives the same death date and matches the person's existing uncited/undated BURI event (Lutwyche Cemetery), but carries no confirmed grave photo, so it is noted as corroboration only and not cited as primary here.
