    Notes:

    On mother's birth notice, married surname is given as STEWART, but no marriage record yet found. Presuming it's the same person, she is found several times on electoral roll as Alexandrina Stewart but has no spouse living with her until 1943 when she's with a William Stewart, trawlerman, at 32 Broughton St, Mortdale, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Given he was a fisherman, that may explain his absence from the roll.
