James was a local too! Note this doesn't match his age given at death but location is an excellent fit with Romsey.

Name: James Albert TULLY
Father: Thomas
Mother: Carol CULLEN
Birth Place: LANCEFIELD
Year/Reg.: 1888/30793

Thos TULLY married Caroline CULLEN in Victoria in 1882 (reg 3746). Shows he was born in Woodstock (?) and she in Sunbury.

There is a matching birth for Caroline in 1858 in 'Aitkins Gap', daughter of Edward and Mary Ann (nee BURNS) (reg 16523). This is confirmed by her death in 1933 in Lancefield aged 74 (reg 14446).

Thos TULLY's father William died in 1884 (farmer and hotelkeeper). See PROV site http://prov.vic.gov.au/index_search?searchid=54

Thanks looks like you are correct,i didnt know that.

The Australian states have differing closure rules. Might Victoria apply the 100 year rule??

This is the official site
https://online.justice.vic.gov.au/bdm/index-search?action=getHistIdxSearchCriteria

I googled his name and on a site i dont know it gave a number 28903 - along with his name and that he was born Flemington Melbourne-would this help in the search somehow?

Thanks, for the information. I wonder if all births were registered back then, i might try S.A or W.a

If Leslie was James' legitimate child, he was born in 1917 or later
