Dear list
My name is Desley laidler and my family history is one of those sorry tales
about children being split up after the father died. Two brothers stayed
together and the younger one was left behind.

21\12 1861 Mathew Maloney Died aged 35 Death cert. states spouse Charlotte
Mclure
Children from marriage James 6 1/2 Edward 5 1/2 Joseph 5months

25/10/1866
charlotte (Mclure) maloney remarried John Draper and moved to Gympie

The next time i find joseph his name has been changed to Draper and he is
getting Married to Emma Kliver(sis) in 1883 the two older brothers (one of
who is my ancester Edward) ran away from home just after the mother
remarried.

Please if someone has access to birth records I would be eternally grateful

I know that Joseph and emma had a least 1 son that was killed in the first
world war
Frederick William Draper age 31 died 3\05\1918 and is buried in The Querrieu
British cemetery he is listed as married Wife's name Mary.

What i would like to know is
Were their any other children from the married of Joseph and Emma
Did Frederick and Mary have any children before he was killed.
Was Joseph buried under the name of Maloney or Draper

Please I have a whole branch of my family that i don't know anything about
and would love to find them.

Kind regards

Desley laidler
