Hi All,

Thank you sooooooooooo much, that all ties in with what I have. I have the marriage of Mary Ann Burton and Enoch Bywater and the Freebmd details of marriage of Rosine Bywater in 1914 she married Arthur Herbert Checkett he died in 1917/18 as she then married Richard Bowen in 1919 she died in 1967 in Crewe.

Enoch Bywater son of Enoch and Mary Ann died in 1950 in Wallasey.

I cannot find a death for the Enoch born 1866 and wonder were he was in 1901.

I can't find any prrof of deaths in Australia nor can I find any immigration record.

A tree says that Enoch died 21 Sep. 1940, Queensland, aged 74 and Mary Ann died 27 Nov. 1921, Brisbane, aged 57 but no documentation.

hi Sorry abt that had to go off for a while.

Jacqueline we crossed post and you answered my question before mine post so now understand.

Margee,

I'm not sure that tree is right as on the 1911 census Mary Ann says she was a widow making that Enoch died sometime between July 1902 and 1911, but I'll see if I can find anything for the Australia deaths. It not the first time someone has a death in another country but have it wrong. I had found one once on the find the grave site with all the English line attached to the wrong woman that someone had put in.

Again Thank you both for all your help.

all the best

hi Clare,

Thank you

Right could be, Enoch was born 1866 son of Edward Bywater and Emma Jowett so the Enoch you found could be right, I have just been gooling Enoch Bywater and found an Embarkation Roll of the 1st world war for Australia saying Enoch Bywater enrolling on 3 Feb 1915 aged is 44yrs out abt 5yrs born Beeston England says he was single and next of kin was John Bywater of Beeston so looks like he left his family and Mary Ann lied on the census.

Here's what I found:
Enoch BYWATER
enlisted on
3 February 1915
in the
4th Light Horse Field Ambulance,
Australian Imperial Force,
with the rank of
CPL Cook, Number 2599,
and was listed as
Returned to Australia
on
27 July 1917
