Herbert Massey Fisher - Australia?

[ElizabethHerts]

My OH had a relative who married this chap in 1932 at Kingston.

He died in 1946 in Devon and his will is in the probate calendar. It says the will was re-sealed at Adelaide. I wondered if he was Australian as the lady travelled over there.

I have found a link about a possible earlier marriage:

Can any of the downunderers find out any more about him, please?

I've found this tantalising snippet but can't view any more:

I've found the marriage allegation for Herbert Massey Fisher's marriage to Delorias Jeannie Valburga (short name!):

On the 1891 census they are at Frida Villa, Trewsbury Rd, Sydenham, London, and he is age 33, a dressing bag maker assistant born Willesden, Middlesex, and she is age 37, born Spain British subject. One servant.

Thanks, Kate.

They seem to have gone to SA after that.

I have found this:

This ties in with the link where it said that Delorias died in 1929. Then Herbert remarried in 1932.

I wonder if the other Fishers are theirs.

And her death is listed on the Australia death index on ancestry - Deloras Voyce Carbonnia Fisher, South Australia, 1926-1930.

Oooh, thanks, Kate. I've never searched Ancestry for Australian records.

Everyone seems to have problems with her name!

There is a Herbert Fisher arriving at London from Australia Jul 1930, retired dairy farmer age 72. (On the UK Incoming Passenger Lists)

There are a Mr H M Fisher and Mrs Fisher travelling from London to Sydney in Oct 1911, on the "Moldavia", not much info shown on FMP but he is English and she is "British Colonial".
