Hi Brian

Sorry I can't see their immigration but there is a death of a Daphne WELLINGTON in Mosman, NSW in 1988. If you go to www*ryersonindex*com you can search on this and request a lookup of the death notice in the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper. This should list spouse/chn's names and at least you will know if this is the right person.

Good luck
Cherilyn

PS Just a tip - avoid posting in capital letters as it is hard to read and it also LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE SHOUTING! ;-)

Hi Brian,

Your best bet is probably contacting the State Library of NSW and using the online "ask a librarian service" on the right hand side of the page. They will do lookups for electoral rolls for you and they post the info overseas for you. You will have to give as much detail of what time period and what state or all? and middle names will help if you have them. They have about a 10 day turn around. I usually do it state by state and ask for both husband and wife so i can cross reference to make it easier on me and them lol.

Good Luck, Lou
