Looking for Macdonald S IN Nsw

By Kori January 13, 2013 1051 views 5 comments

I'm researching my biological father's family history. His name was Craig Edwin MacDonald, born 1958. I can trace his mother Margaret Isabel MacDonald nee Donnelly (my grandmother's)family back to the mid 1500's but im stuck with his father and his siblings. From what i've gathered, he had a brother Steven Jon and a sister Heather-Rae. His father (my grandfather) was John Edwin MacDonald. Anyone able to give a lead as where i can follow that from? The resources i have, and that i can afford to access end there.
Any help would be great!

To view current Electoral Rolls go to any Electoral Office in your area.
Also contact clubs like the Blacktown R.S.L and Blacktown Workers club and ask if they have any details on past members.
What you need are birthdates and or deathdates.

Only 1 Heather Rae in that area
1980 Heather Rae Barlow living at 23 Palau St., Mt.Druitt living with John William Barlow - Occupation, driver
Then a bit further away, at 3 Carnation St., Villawood a Heather Rae Beckhouse (shop assistant) living with Leslie James Beckhouse a radio engineer.

It's quite probable these people are still living why don't you try White Pages

Thank you very much for your help. Where did you find that info! I think i need to tune my internet research skills :) Will try the Whitepages. Not looking forward to the long distance call costs to NSW :)

You may only need to make the one call, there's an H.R. Barlow listed at Rooty Hill. If it's Heather Rae she would probably have all your answers.
I found the info in the 1980 Electoral Rolls. They are National and current Rolls are available to view at any electoral office for free.
