Karen was born in 1963 at Footscray Hospital (now named Western General Hospital). My mother, Lesley, started the family tree in 1973 after attending a family wedding where she could not recognise all her relatives. We have a vast amount of unsourced information as it was assumed these references would never be required. Sources include walking cemeteries searching for family graves, and endless hours at microfiche readers transcribing death notices. Where possible, death notices have been retrieved online. Please feel free to add information to all my files (with sources if available), or message me the details.
