Hi Janis,

I could not find Wildan/William on the death CD to 1985.

Nor could I find any other children for O'Neill & McKeegan, under any
variation.

No luck with Annie's death either.

However, I did find this in the WW2 records...

If this William is your Wildan, the record would indicate he moved to
NSW. Perhaps the whole family did.

Are you sure your Wildan was born in 1924?

I searched the NSW BDM's, but I couldn't see anything relevant.

You can request to see this chap's record on-line at the National
Archives...

Kind regards,
Sherrie.

Sydney, NSW.
