(illegitimate) 14, William 7, John 4, Annie R.J. 18 months, living; 2 females deceased. It is assumed (but not proven) that these deceased children are those listed above. |
A. Mary Ann [Named so by Wyong and Tuggerah Lakes District Pioneer Register. Question: She is described at left as illegitimate. There is indeed an 1882 registration of the birth of a Mary Ann Dreis without any father, but why would she then be described as the illegitimate daughter of this man? Answer (Gillian Baker): Prior to 1902 legislation, a prior-born illegitimate child was not legitimized by the parents' marriage. Mary Ann was William's daughter born out of wedlock and thus still illegitimate in 1897. By the time Catherine died in 1940, Mary Ann's birth was retroactively legitimate.] * 1882, Patricks Plain % John T. Honnery, 1899 ["Mary A.
