Mark Rogers replied to Sylvia's discussion Missing items on recently upgraded NAA site"Andrew - I'm also affected by the older Permalinks ceasing to work.The answers I've received from NAA by email & phone about it have offered no hope at all, so you at least offer some hope that it wasn't intentional.

Sylvia replied to Dan McAloon's discussion Lt Geoffrey Valentin KIA Bougainville 9. 5. 1945"The NAA has a Personnel Dossiers file for Geoffrey Valentin (NX167542). Access Status is "Open", but it hasn't been scanned yet. Therefore it seems that there are 3 choices:
- Pay to have it scanned (probably abt $36 -…"

Sylvia commented on John Hills's blog post David Letham Hamilton from Glasgow"BTW When Mabel is born in 1909 AND when she dies in 1990, her second name is “Letham” (so not Lorraine)."
Sylvia commented on John Hills's blog post David Letham Hamilton from Glasgow"Note: David, Margaret and Mabel were in the 1911 Scotland Census. This was held on 2 Apr 1911. I assume that they could have left later that year as well ..."
Sylvia commented on John Hills's blog post David Letham Hamilton from Glasgow"I think that they would have been in NSW by 10 Jan 1913, because there is a birth registration for probable daughter Elizabth P Hamilton in Granville.
The P could stand for Primrose, because when Margaret Sawyers Hamilton dies in Nov 1967, David is…"

Elizzbeth said… - Hi Sylvia, many thanks for your information on Florence Hunter, her Father was Presbyterian, her Mother Catholic. Florence was raised Presbyterian, however family suspect she may have converted to Catholicism.
I have mistyped her 2nd time to Australia, if it is correct, it would have been 1948 aboard the Ormonde. I will try and pursue the probate information that you gave me, Florence appeared to have a moveable date of birth, she was born in 1902, however at times her birth year has been recorded as 1905 and once as 1909. Thank you so much
