For Edith Mary Charles (1890–1929)

SelfName: Edith Mary Starling | SelfDeathDate: 27 Nov. 1929 | SelfDeathPlace: Queensland | Father: Henry Charles | SourceCertificateNumber: B009687 | SourcePageNumber: 1676

Ancestry-compiled national death index. 'Father: Henry Charles' is plainly a garbling of Herbert Cole Charles rather than a different man -- no other Charles family in this index dies in Queensland in 1929 at the right age -- and is not treated as a contradiction. She had no death date at all on file before this.

For Mabel Lilian Trompf (1885–1943)

Name: Mabel Liln Young | Death Age: 58 | Birth Date: abt 1885 | Death Date: Abt 1943 | Death Place: ??olac, Victoria | Father: Hy ??R Trompf | Mother: Cath Amelia Elliott | Registration Number: 21855 | Source: "Death Index Victoria 1921-1985"

Same Ancestry Chrome session, "Australia, Death Index, 1787-1985" (dbid 1779), collection 'Death Index Victoria 1921-1985'. Parents 'Hy ??R Trompf' / 'Cath Amelia Elliott' (garbled OCR) match the tree's Henry Alexander Trompf #81819 and Catherine Amelia Elliott #81807 exactly, independently confirming Mabel's identity and parentage. Death age 58 and abt-1885 birth year corroborate the tree's existing '2 DEC 1943' death date and '1885' birth date exactly -- no update needed to either field, this citation only supplies the missing provenance. Death place transcribed '??olac, Victoria' is partly garbled OCR, plausibly 'Colac, Victoria' -- too uncertain to set deathPlaceId from; left for a follow-up image pull. No DEAT/BIRT event row exists on this person (vitals-without-events pattern), so the citation is placed directly on the person.

For Mary Cecilia Gentle (d. 1919)

NAME: Mary C Gentle DEATH DATE: Abt 1919 DEATH PLACE: Moora, Western Australia REGISTRATION DATE: 1919 REGISTRATION PLACE: Moora, Australia REGISTRATION NUMBER: 19

Ancestry, Australia Death Index 1787-1985 (dbid 1779), fetched in the owner's signed-in Chrome 2026-09-17/18 (search name=Mary_Gentle, death=1919, death_x=1; row 1-3 of 3). Corroborates the existing WA BDM Registration Index citation (citation #50718, source #1508: 'Gentle, Mary Cecilia, F, 55, George PLEGETIAN, UNKNOWN, Moora, 1919, Moora, 4200019, 1919') for the same person — given name, district and year all match exactly. Registration number differs (19 here vs 4200019 on the WA registry index); the two indexes evidently use different numbering/ID schemes and neither is shown to be wrong, so both citations are kept (sources that merely disagree ⇒ report the split, change nothing). Does not name a father's correctly-spelled surname, a mother, or a spouse, so the review item's family-link ask stays unresolved; a births-index search for a daughter of 'George Plegetian' needs the spelling resolved first (the death certificate itself would settle it but is a purchase, not a search).
