hi bev,
Lilian's marriage is apparent in the NSW BMD (http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/)
12843/1915     HUCKS     FREDERICK T J     WHITEACRE     LILIAN     BROKEN HILL
but neither her birth or death or parent's marriage.
Do you know if they moved from another state or were immigrants ?
You say you have info on william - where did he originate?

William Whiteacre was a contractor and they were married at Tarrowingee NSW His father was William Whiteacre  and he was born at Amherst Victoria in 1856 and died in 1860. His father was James Whiteacre born in 1818 in shrewsbury Shropshire england and died in Koondroook Vic Aust 1897 All this info is on the James Whiteacre /Selina Kemp  gamily history.

Hi bev,

There is a death record that may be Eleanor's in the NSW BMD (http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/), which tells us that her father's name was Sutherland...

Apart from this I can only suggest either the National Archives (http://www.naa.gov.au/collection/using/search/), the Trove National Library Newspapers Archive (http://trove.nla.gov.au/) or other states' BMDs (http://www.coraweb.com.au/bdmau.htm).
