Edward is shown on Findagrave as spouse of Gladys Alma Ashley Appleby. Gladys married Donald Hargrave in 1921, her gravestone shows surname Appleby. However, the only marriage for an Edward Ernest Appleby is to Mary Emma Steinke in 1927. The Brisbane Courier 28 June 1927 (see below) shows article for marriage of "Emma and Mr Edward Appleby, second-son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Appleby." Edward's father's name is James. Therefore I believe that Edward and Emma are the correct pair. It is possible that Edward married Gladys after 1948 (records stop at this date).
