    • I discovered a terrific new piece of family history information today (2 June 2023). My sister Val has always recounted the story of visiting a cousin in Melbourne with our mum and dad. He was Vic FOX, but the name meant nothing to me. I had a few minutes spare this morning, so I had a look at Victorian bdm records for Vic. There were several entries, but one had the mother's surname of GILL, which is also dad's mother's maiden name. Vic's parents were James FOX and Emily GILL. Dad's mother was Ethel GILL, and it turns out she has a sister Emily GILL. I purchased Vic's birth certificate, and his parent's marriage certificate, and the proof is there - Ethel and Emily are sisters. Now, I will have to see who else came to Australia. Emily came to Australia in 1890, which is consistent with her not appearing in the 1891 census records. She was single and recorded as a nurse, so she probably worked as a nurse till she married Vic FOX in 1902.
